Things to do in Phuket

Given that it is a tropical island, it’s no surprise that many of Phuket‘s most popular activities are beach-related. In fact, it would be easy to spend a week on the island and never visit the same beach twice. Each beach offers a unique experience and lovely viewpoints in Phuket, so it’s wise to do a little research before deciding where to lay out your beach towel for the day. There is also, of course, lots to do away from the sand and surf. From cultural landmarks to spas and shopping, there is plenty to keep non-beachgoers busy on a vacation in Phuket.

• There is a reason that Patong Beach is Phuket‘s most popular tourist attraction. In addition to the three kilometers of white sandy beach and the vibrant night life, Patong Beach is known for incredible shopping, wild entertainment, and outdoor adventures like zip lining and hiking.
• Kata Beach and Kata Noi Beach are two of the best beaches on Phuket‘s west coast. These beaches are lined with the amenities and attractions and offer a more family-friendly alternative to the wild atmosphere that can develop around Patong Beach. Visitors to these beaches will have their choice of restaurants, water sports, and other activities. Between May and November, these beaches also offer some of the best surfing on the island.
• Rawai Beach is the main departure point for boat tours of the smaller islands surrounding Phuket. While it’s not the most popular spot for swimming and sunbathing, Rawai Beach is popular with locals and therefore offers a unique glimpse into day-to-day life in Phuket. Visitors interested in taking a ride in one of the iconic long-tail boats will find plenty of tours available on Rawai Beach. Don’t miss the casual restaurants along the beach that sell sticky rice and barbecue!
• No visit to Phuket would be complete without a daytrip to one of the surrounding islands, and Coral Island is the perfect pick, particularly for those who love watersports and aren’t looking for a big party scene. The peaceful island has stunning beaches and impressive coral reefs just off shore. Once visitors arrive on the island, they’ll find a range of activities to choose from, including parasailing and snorkeling. Those who prefer something more low-key can rent a beach lounger or book a massage.
• Visitors looking for an escape from the hustle and bustle of Patong Beach would do well to head to Kamala Beach. The quiet fishing village offers a more tranquil alternative to some of the area’s busier, more touristy beaches. While there are no public facilities at Kamala Beach, there are several hotels and restaurants along the beach where visitors can grab a bite or a drink.
• Thanks to its location atop Nakkerd Hills and its massive size, Phuket’s Big Buddha is one of the area’s most well-known landmarks and offers some of the most impressive viewpoints in Phuket. Built in 2004, the 45-meter statue is made of concrete, which has been overlaid with white jade marble. The towering figure can be seen from many points across the island, but it’s worth the six-kilometer drive through the lush jungle to get up close to the statue and to enjoy the 360-degree views from the hilltop.
• No one should leave Phuket without experiencing a Thai massage, and the Santosa Wellness Center is the perfect place to check this item off the vacation to-do list. This full-service spa offers a variety of Eastern treatments including Shirodhara, which is an Ayurvedic therapy and involves pouring oils over the forehead. The wellness center also features a vegan restaurant.
• Most visitors to Thailand include a visit to a night market on their vacation itinerary because it offers a great opportunity to taste some authentic Thai food, shop for handicrafts, and experience a bit of local culture. With it’s expansive food court, reasonable prices, and convenient hours, Kata Night Market is one of the most popular markets in Phuket. The market is contained in three pavilions along Kata New Road, and thanks to the giant statue of a gorilla and the Hulk that flank one of the entrances, it’s pretty easy to find!
