sir you might wanna visit thailand first, sabi ng kapatid ko mas maganda daw doon sa phuket and pattaya kesa sa bali, parang pinas lang naman daw kasi ang bali indonesia..

sa singapore naman pangit daw beach.. maganda ang place.

then kung gusto mo ng maganda rin daw ang place po, australia super nice daw talaga yung place... hehe medyo mahal nga lang ;) and malamig

again, if beach thailand... research po kayo ng konti, btw yung pattaya doon yung THE BEACH na movie banda ginanap

bali if mahilig ka mag-surfing and bar-hopping. dirt cheap daw ngayon dun sabi ng isang kasama ko dito sa work, galing lang sila last month.

tip for bali: look for the single (meaning alone) australian female wandering around. she's probably a college girl on vacation with a group of other girls and they have all gone separate ways to get boys. they don't care for skin color, they just want to get laid.

pattaya kung mahilig ka sa beach, you like nice hotels and you like thai girls. thailand still has the highest incidence of aids in asia so be careful.

Di masyado maganda beach sa Bali, though maraming hotels na magaganda. Phi phi island yata sa Thailand mas okay.

some tips:

thailand:

masyadong crowded at pattaya. its just 2 hours from bangkok so madaming tao lagi doon. but if you decide to go there, stay in hat jomtien, mas malinis ang beach doon compared to hat pattaya area. may kart circuit din doon so you may want to give it a try. B150-B200 ata per hour. ingat lang sa mga pimps, transvestites at makukulit na prosti.

if you are coming from bangkok, i suggest you take your backpack and travel south. suggestion ko is 1st visit koh samet (about 200kms from Bangkok, accessible by aircon tourist bus), then head to koh chang island. ganda dun, linis beach, di commercialized. or you may want to take a ferry to chum**** (another island), then proceed to koh samui, to visit the neighboring islands koh phangan and koh tao. koh samui parang boracay, highly commercialized but nice and clean beaches. mas subdued (at mura) ang koh phangan (i know of a nice & cheap place to stay there, PM me if interested). maganda i-timing mo ang pasyal mo sa koh phangan durng the full moon, kasi may rave party sa beach that time. drinks are cheap! girls are overflowing there, dancing & getting drunk. party all nite sa haadrin beach! scuba diving is nice & cheap in koh tao. cheap accomodations din (about B200 for a fan room/nite). its very near koh nang yuan nga island, a unique place where 3 islands are connected via sand bridges. great dive spots there! there are also the koh phi phi islands (never been there yet, but i heard its very serene, minimal crowd mostly backpackers).

if you want to head south west, andun ang phuket (expensive), ao nang/krabi (expensive, that's where the james bond island is). B500 per person for a tour. pero magaganda din ang beaches dun. you can do rock climbing in krabi also (railay beach). very commercialized na rin ang phuket & krabi.

bali:

things werent the same after the bombings there. although naka-recover na, parang di pa rin back to normal when i was there about 2 yrs ago. konti ang tourists, pero ok yon para sa atin kasi mura ang mga bilihin. if you like to do surfing, then this is the place to go. i stayed in hard rock hotel when i was there. i find the bali expensive compared to the places ive been to thailand.

singapore:

skip singapore if you are looking for nice beaches. there aint one! :D

malaysia:

recommended places: tioman (3 hours by bus from KL to mersing jetty, then high-speed ferry to tioman), redang island (north-east, take a 1 hour flight or overnite bus), sipadan (south-east, definitely take a 1 hour flight from KL to kota kinabalu, 3-4 hour land travel to ferry station, then ferry ride for 30 mins). no more abu sayaff visits there recently! :D

hope this helps.
