Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie who craves thrills and excitement, or you’re looking for a more relaxed and laid back experience, there’s plenty to do in these beautiful and serene tropical waters.
Activities available on Karon Beach include jet skiing, parasailing, diving, and snorkeling. Wind surfing is also a particularly popular activity as the weather conditions on the beach are perfect for catching waves and sailing through the sea.
Giant Water Slides
If you’re looking for activities within the resort itself, Thavorn Palm Beach Resort boasts 4 water slides that are up to 14 meters tall. Fast, fun, and exciting, these water slides include four different layouts: curved, spiral, wide, and roller coaster spiral. Whether you’re vacationing with your kids or fancy trying them out yourself, these slides are sure to provide a thrill.
Animal Petting Zoo

The Animal Petting Zoo was only recently created at the resort, and acts as a dedicated space to meet and greet an adorable assortment of animals. Young children can feed and pet our docile and friendly animals. The first resident of Thavorn Palm Beach Resort was actually a tortoise named Oscar. Now, Oscar is accompanied by little tortoises and several other animals including chickens, rabbits, love birds, goats and sheep.
Botanical Gardens
Right on the grounds of Thavorn Palm Beach Resort are 12 acres of land dedicated to greenery and gardening. Not only are there a wide variety of plants, flowers, trees, and greenery to discover, there are also some friendly local animals including rabbits, roosters, and tortoises.

Big Buddha
Located just 20 minutes from Thavorn Palm Beach Resort, the Big Buddha is a 25-meter wide and 45-meter tall statue of the Buddha located atop Nakkerd Hill. Construction of the statue began in 2002 and finished in 2014. The statue is an awe-inspiring sight to behold, and a cultural destination in its own right. Interestingly enough, the official name of the statue is a mixture of Thai, Sanskrit, and Pali, and is a three part name: Phra Putta Ming Mongkol Eknakiri, meaning “the Cherished Auspicious Lord Buddha atop Naga Hill”, a fitting name for a magnificent statue.
Wat Chalong
Just a 25-minute drive away is another cultural destination, the temple of Wat Chalong. This is the largest of Phuket’s temples and was built in the early 19th century. Locals and tourists alike come to this temple to pay their respects to the founders of Wat Chalong, Luang Pho Cham and Luang Pho Chuang. These two monks led the citizens of Chalong sub district against the Chinese rebellion of 1876. This historical and cultural sight is sure to impress any history buff or cultural enthusiast, with the temple’s golden arches, statues of Buddha, and red and gold columns.
