Those who rest on Karon Beach may be interested in those entertainment that are offered in the area. Starting the conversation about the entertainment on Karon Beach, first of all, I note that there is not much entertainment there as, for example, on Patong - first of all, I mean nightclubs and bars. If you like active nightlife, then you may need to consider the Patong area or at least ride there from time to time.
Night clubs and bars
There are no nightclubs on caron (well, or practically no), there are a number of bars, but usually they are not very big and difficult to be called gorgeous. There you are waiting for various cocktails - most of all, of course, well-known - it is a mojito in different variations, Margarita, Daikiri and the like, there are alcoholic beverages - mostly rum, whiskey, less often something exotic, loud music (usually something exotic Yes, from the European Repertura, although we met and the bars where Asian music played). In some bars, secretly sitting, dressed extremely defiant, I think, everything in principle is clear why they are there.In some cafe you, by the way, can entertain live music - as a rule, this is something from the repurct of European or American groups, they sing in different ways - there are quite good options, and there are frankly fake singers - as lucky. We, in particular, heard live music on the caron. Two Chefs.
Hotel Entertainment
In many hotels of Thailand and in particular Phuket animation, there is no animation, so if this moment is important for you, you should find out in advance whether your hotel provides such services. We lived in Diamond Cottage Resort and SPA, we did not have animations (however, justice to note that we did not seek to her).
Entertainment for children
Those who are driving on Karon with small (as well as grown) children should take into account that rest in the caron is not too sharpened for families with children. There is no such concept as playgrounds on Phuket in principle - this is not Europe, so there is no swing or carousels that are in free access, speeches. In some hotels there are small playgrounds, if it is important for you, it is worth learn about it in advance. In our hotel (I repeat - it was a Diamond Cottage Resort and SPA) for children was a shallow pool (frog), as well as a water slide (though, it is not suitable for very young children, I would say that it is convenient to ride children at least from 5 years). In general, as it seemed to me, the hotel was not intended to stay families with children - there was practically no special infrastructure for them.
But on the caron for children there Dino Park. - This is a restaurant in the jungle, as well as mini golf. I explain in more detail - Dino Park is a restaurant where the tables are like in more often the jungle - they are surrounded by tropical plants, the tables themselves are made of wood or stone, you sit on hemp. There are also figures of various dinosaurs, so it seems that you are in some kind of park of the Jurassic period, surrounded by prehistoric animals. In addition, there is a mini-golf, which, as a rule, like children - at least, there are quite a lot of them, everyone is playing.
To the entrance to Dino Park in the evenings, elephant, with which you can take a picture and feed it with fruits - vegetables. A completely small children of the elephant also ride on the back (for an additional fee, of course).
Entertainment on the beach
The Karon Beach is quite extended, so in some kind of water entertainment may not be because they can be far away away. Nevertheless, there are water entertainment on the caron - first of all these are standard hydrocycles and parachute riding. On the hydrocycles in general, anyone can ride anyone - no licenses are asked (this is not Europe), on parachutes as well. If I have nothing to tell about riding on the hydrocycles - it is standard, it does not differ from other countries, then the flight on a parachute, honestly, I was struck. Also, like everywhere, the boat pulls the parachute, but - parachute controls the Tapet, who hangs right on the plots - that is, somewhere above his head at the skiing. Very original moment - the truth must pay tribute - the Tach is quite well managed by parachute, at least over the time of staying on the beach, the parachute was completely successful - but the way of skiing, in my opinion, is still somewhat strange.
Show - Programs
Tourfirs are offered various shows - programs that can be visited by resting including on Karon -Bich. I'll tell you about the show that I visited personally - Fantasia Phuket..
For a fantasy, we took a ticket that included dinner (usual, there is another option with seafood), transfer there - back and gold places.
We went to the place of holding a little more than an hour (along the way there were still tourists from different hotels), we have a corporate bus show. Upon arrival, we exchanged vouchers for tickets and entered the park. As a rule, tourists will be brought 2-3 hours before the start of the show, we were brought around 6 pm, and the idea began at 9.
Time to the show is discharged to dinner, as well as visiting the park itself.
What can I say about the park - nothing special, but there are full of souvenir shops, various games (such as throwing darts, shoot down the balls, get a ball in a frog and so on) - pretty funny, you can win prizes (we, by the way, won three soft toys) - All for an additional fee, naturally.
Dinner, I would describe how normal - there is food, it's not bad to taste, but it is not so much. Some of the drinks are not free (only water and tea / coffee) are free), they must be ordered from the waiter.
Also in the park, fantasy can be viewed on animals (mini-zoo), ride in elephants and take pictures with a tiger.
The show itself lasts a little more than an hour, we generally liked the crowd of people dressed in national costumes sing, dancing, depict various scenes from Thai history. Acrobats are involved in the show, as well as animals - elephants, tigers, buffalo and pigeons. The costumes are very beautiful, on the stage constantly something happens, and pyrotechnics are used. So as a whole, I recommend fantasy to everyone, however, consider that the representation itself is completely unnecessary.
