Camping is permitted on both Mai Khao and Nai Yang beaches in the Sirinat National Park. They are the longest beaches on Phuket and are quiet and serene, apart from the occassional landings and take offs at the nearby Phuket airport. The Park's Visitor's Center, located near the south end of Mai Khao, rents simple tents and provides some minimal facilities for campers.
Trekking
The Khao Phra Thaeo Wildlife Park offers the best trekking in Phuket with a well preserved natural environment. May through October is the best time for jungle trekking, when the forest is full of blossoms. The park has a marked hiking route for visitors to follow. Opposite to the park is the idyllic setting of Ton Sai Waterfall Forest Park which offers a wide variety of natural beauty set among green trees, watercourses and pools.

Off Phuket coast lie some of the best pearl beds in the world. Culturing rare South Sea pearls is a long and delicate process, taking years for the farmers to develop the fine skills necessary to carefully extract the pearls without harming the oysters. Naga Island offers visitors a unique opportunity to learn how this process is undertaken, study the fascinating methods of culturing, and discover for themselves whether the "priceless" pearl necklace they purchased on a Bangkok street corner is really the real thing.
