Curly Tales’ girl gang recently visited Phuket, Thailand and if you’re planning to head there with your girls for your next vacation, we have planned an itinerary for you. Here’s all that you can do in Phuket with your girlfriends for 48 hours –
Day 1
9 AM to 5 PM
Rent a private boat and go island hopping! Sip some champagne while moving from island to island and that’s the best way to spend time on this tropical destination. We’ve always had a great time pub hopping with our girlfriends, but island hopping surely takes it to another level! You’ll see dramatic limestone cliffs, secluded beaches & islands. You can enjoy a leisure breakfast at one island and head for lunch at another. Dreamy, isn’t it? Don’t forget to check out James Bond & Koh Rong Noi Islands.
6 PM to 9 PM
Indulge in some shopping at Central Mall. Who can say no to shopping, yea? Head to Central Mall, Phuket for shoes, bags, clothes and lots more. Basically, a shopping extravaganza awaits you here!

Spend the evening at The Column with dinner and drinks. The Column is an exclusive place in Phuket dedicated to a mix of nationalities. You and your girls can enjoy some exciting drinks, or try out their appetizers to enjoy the evening.

12 AM to 3 AM
Now that dinner is done, how about enjoy some nightlife scenes in Phuket? Bangla Street is an experience that you can’t get enough of. Heading to Bangla Street is like entering a sort of a fantasy land. The vibe is lively and the place is filled with younsgters. Epicenter of nightlife in Phuket, it is literally packed with a ridiculous amount of bars, go-go bars, girly bars, ex-pat bars, where drinks, women and music are the standard. Bangla Road is quite simply the sex capital of Phuket. If you’re looking for a fun dancing and drinking night with your girls, Bangla Street is perfect!

Day 2
10 AM to 12 PM
Time to experience the beaches of Phuket. Bang Tao Beach is one of the nicer beaches in Phuket and is famous for scuba diving, snorkeling, and jet skiing. Going by the saying, ‘girls just wanna have fun’, Bang Tao Beach offers watersports and lots of fun activities for you and your girls to let loose and cure the hangover from last night! For those seeking the thrill, you can even ride the jet ski by yourself!
12 PM to 1 PM
You can’t leave Thailand without getting a Thai massage! A 1 hour massage will cost you around 400 baht (bargainable).
1 PM to 2.30 PM
After the watersports and the massage, we’re sure you must be hungry. Head to bars and restaurants by the beach to enjoy a beach lunch. Indulge in fresh seafood, meat or some milkshakes. If you’re a vegetarian, you might have a tough time finding the right meal here, but for non-vegetarians, the list is never ending!
3.30 PM to 4.30 PM
Visit the Big Buddha that is present in the South of Phuket. The giant Buddha image sits on the top of the Nakkerd Hills. The Big Buddha site offers 360-degree views of Phuket Town, Kata, Karon, Chalong Bay and more. If you’re looking for some LIT photos for your Instagram profile, this destination is perfect for you!
5.30 PM to 7.30 PM
Head to the Simon Cabaret where beautiful lady-boys perform the cabaret in perfect synchronization. The Simon Cabaret is a popular show that has been running in Phuket for almost 2 decades!

8 PM to 10 PM
Want to indulge in some night shopping? Head to Chillva Night Market. It’s a cool, and trendy night market with a somewhat bohemian vibe to it. But the most catching thing about this market is the fact that the shops are made out of shipping containers that have been painted colorfully. Enjoy a quick dinner with your girls at the street food joints at the night market.
