Phuket City

The bustling, administrative center of Phuket is often overlooked in favor of the beaches, but there's a lot to see and do (and spend your money on!) in Phuket City.

Having been recently upgraded to city status, Phuket City features an exciting mix of old and new, simple and sophisticated, peaceful and pulsating.

Phuket Activities

While it may be tempting to stay on the beach every day, there are heaps of sports and other activities that will spice up your stay in Phuket.

Be adventurous, learn something new, stay fit, and most of all, take time to explore some of the truly fascinating sites in the waters surrounding Phuket and on its interior.

Phuket Beaches

Few islands can boast of such an abundance of sandy beaches and clear waters as Phuket. The winding coastal roads along the west coast of this 540-square-km island offer stunning views and easy access to some of the world's finest beaches.

Whether one wants to sample the frenetic pace of Patong or find solitude on a remote stretch of sand in the north, Phuket's beaches have it all for the sun seeker. The monsoon rains of May-October can bring unpredictable swimming conditions, so heed the posted flag warnings.
