Me by Rawai Bay. Check out the water and the Thai Longtail boats. Is that gorgeous or what?
Imagine crystal clear waters, Thai Longtail boats and more seafood restaurants than you can shake a stick at.
You have Rawai Bay, Thailand.
I selfie-snapped the above image by Rawai Bay on a gorgeous high season day. Thailand has a high season and low season. The high season is typified by sunny skies, dry weather and the spotty rain shower or 2, here and there, and the low season is called the monsoon season.
Don’t let the “monsoon” term fool you; heavy, persistent, torrential downpours for hours on end don’t happen in this neck of the woods. We’re not talking India monsoon, we’re talking maybe a storm here and there. Sometimes you’ll see 1 or 2 full days of rain but even that’s rare in Phuket.
Rawai Bay in Phuket Thailand
Kelli and I would often walk down the main strip in Rawai for our daily cardio. We’d pass the many bars, restaurants and endless convenience stores – 7-11, Tesco Lotus, Family Mart, etc, etc, etc – on our way to the pier, or we’d hook a right to check out the bay scene.
Nikita’s, and a full array of Thai seafood restaurants line the road as you make your way toward Promthep Cape and Nai Harn Beach.
We count Phuket as one of our favorite travel spots on earth. We are obsessed with Thai vegetarian food and appreciate that the Thai appreciate banana shakes.
On a side note, why do so few people in the tropics – in Asia particularly – NOT know how to do banana shakes? In Vietnam they are served warm, which baffles me considering in Hoi An the heat index reached 125 degrees on some days. Also, no shakes here in Fiji, on the street? Come on guys! You have work to do, to catch up to Thailand.
Anyway, we’re in love with the overall vibe in Thailand, especially on the south end of Phuket. Gorgeous views, lovely beaches and if you avoid the tourist traps like Patong – unless you want to catch a movie and head to the mall – you’ll see some of the best that Phuket has to offer.
Phuket is not all Patong, folks!

I’ve been releasing eBooks at a pretty sweet clip.
I want to take you with me. That’s always been my intent on Blogging from Paradise. I write to inspire, to entertain, to inform and to sell a dream.
It brings me joy when I read that bloggers are becoming full time digital nomads because of the inspiration I’ve been serving up.
With that in mind, I wanted to tell you, that you can create and publish successful eBooks to:
Set up a passive online income stream
Establish your digital nomad authority
Create a value-packed manual for your audience
To address these issues I’ve published:
