CITY GUIDES
Bang Tao lies on the northwest coast of Phuket, alongside the sub-district of Cherngtalay, and is the location of one of the longest beaches on the island.
Mai Khao, the longest beach in Phuket, boasts 11 km of pristine sands in Sirinat National Park, providing a peaceful escape from urban bustle.
Nai Yang Beach in Phuket is a serene coastal gem, tucked near the airport, offering a tranquil retreat from tourist crowds.
Surin Beach is situated along the west coast of Phuket and is often referred to as ‘Millionaire’s Row’ due to the plush properties that can be observed high in the surrounding hills.
Kamala Beach is located north of Patong and is another west coast beach town on Phuket.
Patong is Phuket’s party town and a whole lot more.
Kathu lies in the centre of the island and has both a traditional old village, as well as more modern areas that make up the rest of the town.
Phuket Town is an absolute pleasure to explore with its eclectic mix of ‘old meets new’ attractions combined with a strong sense of tradition that is evident throughout.
Kalim Beach is a rocky and picturesque beach located just north of the bustling Patong and offers serene views, especially during sunset.
Karon Beach enjoys the second longest stretch of golden coastline on the island, extending to an impressive five kilometres.
Kata Beach is one of Phuket’s highlights, a stunningly beautiful stretch of white, sandy shore that attracts crowds any time of the year.
Chalong is mainly a residential and business area (diving), the dwelling choice for many expats, as well as locals.
The beach towns of Rawai and Nai Harn hold a certain charm about them.
