Things to Do

The Sundeck Phuket

The Sundeck Phuket

    The Sundeck Phuket is a new rooftop bar and restaurant in a fantastic location, high above the beautiful Kata Noi Beach. The location by the roadside between Kata Beach and Nai Harn Beach is such that almost everyone drives in front of this stunning viewpoint at least once.

    Phuket Sunday Walking Street Market

    Phuket Sunday Walking Street Market

      Phuket Sunday Walking Street Market is the most popular attraction in Phuket Town. This 360-metre long street market was an instant success, adding a much-needed event to the historical part of town.

      Ao Sane Beach

      Ao Sane Beach โ›ฑ๏ธ

        Ao Sane Beach proves that Phuket still has some little beaches hidden from view where you can pretend nothing has changed in the past twenty years. Of course, there is no such thing as a ‘secret beach’ anymore, but you must make a little effort to get there.

        Jui Tui Shrine

        Jui Tui Shrine (Kew Ong) โ›ฉ๏ธ

          Jui Tui Shrine (Kew Ong) is one of the oldest and most important on Phuket Island. It plays a significant role during the famous Phuket Vegetarian Festival, usually held in October and November. The festival dates use the Lunar Calendar, and the festival’s exact dates change every year, so if you plan to travel to Phuket to see this event, check the dates before booking.

          Pansea Beach

          Pansea Beach โ›ฑ๏ธ

            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.

            Thai Hua Museum in Phuket Town

            Phuket Thai Hua Museum

              The Thai Hua Museum on Krabi Road in Phuket Town is a pleasant surprise. We visited it a few years ago when it reopened, and despite being in a beautiful mansion, it was just an empty building.

              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.

                Andaman Sky Lounge in Phuket

                Andaman Sky Lounge Patong Beach

                  Andaman Sky Lounge is one of Phuket’s least known rooftop bars and restaurants. It’s relatively easy to find this place in Patong Beach but reviewing it took us a while.

                  Maiton Island

                  Maiton Island (Koh Mai Thon) ๐Ÿ๏ธ

                    Maiton Island is an understated paradise with a long and exciting history. Itโ€™s a fantastic day out, only 15 minutes from Phuket by speedboat. The island is small but with a large and quiet beach and a green hill as a backdrop. Maiton is a private island with a small hotel and just a few bungalows that used to be the ultimate luxury in Phuket.

                    Cafรฉ Ma Doo Bua ร  Phuket

                    Ma Doo Bua

                      Ma Doo Bua is a cafe and restaurant whose sole purpose is to provide an irresistible background to the new generation of selfie lovers. The main catch is an artificial lake covered with those unusual giant circular floating leaves called Victoria Amazonica

                      Chalong Bay Rum Distillery

                      Chalong Bay Rum Distillery

                        The Chalong Bay Rum Distillery has become known worldwide, but it started very modestly around 2012, in a remote area of Phuket called Chalong.

                        Splash Beach Club Phuket

                        Splash Beach Club near Patong

                          Splash Beach Club is a new spot hidden in a tiny creek not far from Patong Beach, between the beautiful Tri Trang and Paradise beach.

                          Phuket Boat Lagoon Marina

                          Phuket Boat Lagoon Marina

                            Phuket Boat Lagoon Marina was the first marina built in Phuket several decades ago, and at the time, it was one of the trendiest places for residents and expats.
