Rawai View Cafe is a charming little restaurant and bar with a beautiful wooden terrace overlooking the bay of Rawai Beach, in the very south of Phuket island. It’s well hidden and not on the tourist roads, but with such a superb setting, it is quickly growing in popularity. This restaurant is a good place for lunch in the shade of trees or for a romantic dinner by the sea.
Rawai Seafood Market started as a modest local fisherman village where you would buy some local catch to take home. Rawai beach, in the very south of Phuket, is also known as the Sea Gypsy Village
Nikita’s Beach Restaurant has always been a long-time favourite among expats or returning visitors, serving Thai and seafood for over 20 years. Hidden by the sea under large trees at the very end of Rawai beach, Nikita’s would be easy to miss if it wasn’t for a wooden sign by the road.

Rawai Beach, at the south end of Phuket island, is not a beach suitable for swimming, but it offers beautiful views of the nearby islands and has a peaceful local atmosphere.
