BEACHES OF PHUKET

Phuket Aquarium

Phuket Aquarium in Cape Panwa

    The Phuket Aquarium in Cape Panwa is not immense, as the tunnel is only a few metres long, but it is still a great place to entertain you and your kids on a rainy day and might even be your chance to see baby turtles.

    Novotel Phuket Rsort

    Novotel Phuket Resort

      Novotel Phuket Resort at the northern end of Patong Beach offers sea views, which not many hotels in Patong can afford. The hotel is designed with typical Thai roofs over an imposing lobby, palm trees and greenery everywhere around three huge cascading pools.

      Secret Beaches of Phuket

      18 Secret Beaches of Phuket

        There are still secret beaches in Phuket and some hidden and quiet spots, most of which are beautiful. Of course, some are difficult to find, but surprisingly many are in plain sight and easy to access.

        Mai Khao Beach in Phuket

        Mai Khao Beach ⛱️

          Mai Khao Beach is 11 kilometres long, the longest beach in Phuket, and because it is part of the Sirinat National Park, it still looks in some parts as deserted as when we first visited it in 1990.

          Kata Beach in Phuket island

          Kata Beach ⛱️

            Kata Beach, on the west coast of Phuket island, is one of the most visited beaches after Patong Beach. Kata enjoys a lovely sandy bay with an incredibly blue sea and an iconic island standing in the middle of the ocean, making excellent sunset photos.

            Karon Viewpoint

            Karon Viewpoint

              The Karon Viewpoint Thai name is Kho Sam Haad, which means ‘The Hill of the Three Beaches’, and once we reached the place, just as promised, we saw three beaches. So if this is your first trip to Phuket, you probably will stop for a few minutes at this popular panoramic landmark.

              Karon Beach in Phuket

              Karon Beach ⛱️ ​

                Karon is one of the longest beaches in Phuket, ranking 3rd on our beach popularity page. It enjoys a 3 kilometres stretch of white sand, a decent choice of dining and nightlife, and never seems to draw crowds of tourists, which is a good thing.

                Kalima Resort & Spa Phuket

                  Kalima Resort Phuket is a hotel with amazing panoramic views of the immense bay of Patong Beach, built on a green hill near Kalim Beach in Phuket. With such a unique location, guests can enjoy the views but also a strategic location within minutes of Patong Beach

                  Freedom Beach ⛱️

                    The beautiful and secluded Freedom Beach is an anomaly. It is one of the prettiest beaches in Phuket, with incredibly soft white sand and clear blue waters. It is just a few minutes away from Patong Beach, the busiest beach on the island.

                          After Beach Bar Phuket is a very popular Thai restaurant perched high on a cliffside above Kata Noi Beach, on the way to Nai Harn Beach; from the outside, the restaurant looks modest, with low thatched roofs and an old-fashioned reggae atmosphere.

                            Sala Phuket Resort and Spa on Mai Khao Beach is one of our all-time favourite hideaways in Phuket, but it is not a hotel for everyone. It is a romantic resort fully dedicated to couples, with a unique setting and total privacy.

                              Pansea Beach ⛱️

                                Pansea Beach looks like a private beach, but since private beaches are not allowed in Thailand, you can get around by owning all the land around that beach. Only two luxury hotels, ‘The Surin’ and ‘Amanpuri’, can access Pansea Beach.
