If you like getting tattoos, a traditional Thai bamboo tattoo is a great way to experience local practices. This is a very painful process in which a sharp bamboo shard is used in lieu of a real tattoo needle. The ink is usually homemade, with some people making it using snake venom, among other ingredients. It is not for the faint of heart. As you might imagine, the main attraction of Phuket Patong Beach is the beach itself. A huge range of water activities are available for you to indulge in. These include going jet skiing, windsurfing, getting a massage on the beach, having dinner on the beach, and getting many other ridiculously overpriced souvenirs sold by wandering vendors on the beach. One adventurous thing you can do is check with your hostel if there are any fish massage parlors nearby. These massages are quite cheap. You immerse your feet in salty water and let small fish eat the dead skin off your feet, giving you an all-natural pedicure. There are other massages in the city as well, some of which you might want to be wary about.
Try planning a beach day at spots like Rockstar Beach, Dolphin Cove Beach, or on one of the 20 miles of beaches accessible through Andy Bowie County Park. If you're going to drive on the beach from the park, just make sure you're driving a vehicle with 4 wheel drive that can actually maneuver on the sand! Speaking of sand, pay a visit to the largest sand castle in the country for a bit of kitschy, family-friendly fun! Party in South Padre Island! You can even party on the beach at locations like Clayton's Beach Bar, where you can dance, drink, and play the night away at the biggest beach bar in Texas. Other great bars in the area include laid-back WannaWanna, where you can relax on a charming, rustic patio with live music and tropical drinks, and Padre Island Brewing Co., which is well-known for its fantastic craft beer and yummy pub grub. Of course, there's more to South Padre Island than just beaches (even though we don't blame you for being excited about the beach)! If you love animals—and honestly, who doesn't?
