You must bring sunscreen with SPF 50+ and waterproof mosquito repellent to Phuket, as the tropical sun is very intense and insects are particularly bothersome in the evening. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing made from natural fabrics, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses to protect against intense ultraviolet radiation. 
Don't forget to bring a first aid kit with stomach upset medication, antihistamines, and bandages, as well as a waterproof case for your phone and documents.Reef shoes for swimming (protection from sea urchins and corals) and a reusable water bottle to avoid dehydration in the hot climate will also be useful.
