Beaches & bays

Phuket’s glory lies in its magnificent coastline. Beaches range from gentle crescents of white sand to rocky headlands. Going  clockwise from the island’s northern tip, where the Sarasin Bridge connects with the mainland, the major beaches and bays are: Hat Mai Khao, Hat Nai Yang, Hat kamala, Hat Patong, Hat Karon & Kata.

Accommodation

Phuket offers a huge range of accommodation, from super deluxe resorts to beach bungalows.

Major sights & attractions

The compact provincial capital serves mainly as a commercial and shopping center, while traces of the old Sino-Portuguese architecture provide a distinctive character.
