Activities/Sports

There's a wealth of outdoor activities and sports opportunities available in Thailand. Below are some links to good sites with details on some of the most popular activities.

Thai Boxing (Muay Thai)

There is perhaps no sport more associated with Thailand than kick-boxing, or muay Thai as it's known in Thai.

Deep Sea Fishing

Phuket Deep Sea Fishing

It might not be the first thing that comes to mind, but there is excellent fishing to be had in the Andaman sea.

Diving

Golfing

Golf was "the" game for the newly affluent middle class in the boom years of the 1990's. No self-respecting business man was without his set of clubs and memberships. Things have cooled down a bit, but there are still all those courses, some of them world class, and with some of the cheapest green fees in the world. Thailand was a mecca of sorts for golfers from around Asia seeking out good courses for a fair price. Here are some links to directories of golf courses in Thailand:
