Thai Boxing (Muay Thai)

The most famous sport of Thailand is Muay Thai so if you are into martial arts this is definitely one to go check out. It’s not for the faint hearted though and has a reputation for being extremely tough. Rather then just going to watch a fight there are plenty of Muay Thai centres and camps where you can even learn the sport. Beware though these camps are tough, but you will become the fitness you have ever been if you spend some time there. There are awesome camps all over the country so if you have a multi centre itinerary then you can just find one near you.

Water sports

Thailand holidays will always involve some form of water sport, which is no surprise when the country has over 3,000 kilometers of coastline. If you want to get your divers license then Thailand is the place to do it. Koh Tao one of the beautiful islands off the coast issues the most divers licenses per year world wide. You can also do some great live aboard dive trips that are super affordable and you will be taken to some of the best dive spots Thailand has to offer. It’s not just diving though in Thailand you have the opportunity to jetski, water ski, kite board and even surf board. Whatever takes your fancy in the water Thailand has it all. Makes a nice difference too when it’s in beautiful turquoise waters with some of the best scenery you’ll see.
