Ride an artificial wave in Patong ✓
Phuket Surf House Patong is a fun activity in Patong Beach with a prime location near Bangla Road and the beach nearby. Yes, it sounds like surfing, but don’t imagine a real surfboard on immense artificial waves; it’s a soft version of wakeboarding. Thankfully, it is also much easier than real surfing or wakeboarding!
Anyone can do it, even you, and it’s very safe since no more than 20 cm of clear water is rushing above an inflated rubber curved surface. If you fall, and you will, you’ll bounce back, and the flow will propel you to the back of the slope, where it’s flat and quiet. In your first lesson, the staff will ask you to hold on to a rope and even though you’ll feel wobbly, it’s not that hard.
Flow house is also (and I’m meant to say mostly) a party place with a DJ playing loud music and many places to sit and enjoy a wide choice of beers and cocktails until late at night. Phuket Surf House also offer some ‘free surf for ladies’ on some days, from 3 pm to 5 pm, a happy hour.
On the downside, riding the wave at Phuket Surf House is not cheap. First, because only two surfers can play simultaneously, and second, you can’t surf too long for the same reason. Watching pros gliding effortlessly on tiny boards is entertaining enough to compensate for the wait.
