Destinations in Phuket
Top Destinations
-
Patong Beach
Holidays to Patong Beach are packed with watersports, round-the-clock nightlife, and grab-and-go street eats.
-
Phi Phi
Holidays to the Phi Phi Islands showcase some of Thailand’s premier destinations – think snorkel-friendly reef-filled waters in the Hat Nopparat Thara-Ko Phi Phi National Park, Instagram-ready beachfronts and plenty of colourful nightlife.
-
Cape Panwa
Offering tropical islands, unmarked beaches and a fishing village philosophy, holidays to Cape Panwa won't stay secret for long.
-
Tri Trang Beach
Holidays to Phuket Tri Trang let you experience Thailand's middle ground. You've got a pin-drop peaceful beach, easy access to famous sights, and electric nightlife just a stone's throw away.
-
Kata Beach
Holidays to Kata Beach are centred on a long stretch of white sand on Phuket’s west coast, which is flanked by jungle-covered hills. The beach is a hotspot for surfing at its southern end, and comes with direct views of Koh Pu, while the lively night market provides evening entertainment nearby.
-
Bang Tao
Holidays to Bang Tao are surprising. Yes, this spot's got the same tropical good looks as its Phuket counterparts, but this diverse little village also has a personality all of its own, thanks to a heritage in tin mining. Plus, it’s just 25 minutes’ drive from Phuket International Airport.
-
Mai Khao
A footprint-free 11-kilometre beach is the focus of holidays to Mai Khao. A cluster of niche shops and some quality in-house cocktail bars come as added extras.
-
Nai Thon Beach
Nai Thon Beach holidays show a quieter side to Phuket, with uncrowded Thailand beaches, low-key local restaurants and lesser-known coral reefs.
-
Nai Harn
Holidays to Nai Harn surround you with natural beauty, from the ice-white strip of sand to the scenic jungle-covered mountains.
-
Rawai
Holidays to Rawai are a best-of-both-worlds affair – it’s authentic Thailand within easy reach of Phuket’s must-sees.
