A
virtual journey from the North to
the South (of the West cost of Phuket)
gives you a good impression of all the important
beaches,
this can help you to find your perfect
beach destination.
Southern beaches
Phuket Island is everywhere beautiful but the south part of the island
looks like a tropical daydream. The southern beaches offer superb vistas and
beautiful sunsets. Many of the best hotels and restaurants in Phuket and some
of the most beautiful beaches in the world are located here. The most popular
are: Patong,
Karon and
Kata beach, which you see in an overview on the picture above.
Northern Beaches
The north part of the island is less developed and gets only a tiny fraction
of the visitors to Phuket. Miles of unspoiled beaches and good food await you.
As you travel north you will encounter beaches dominated with casuarina pine
trees rather than palm trees.
