Patong Beach

I used to think Thailand was all superstitious and not as interesting as European culture, so I was never really interested in traveling there. However, my friends kept recommending how fun Thailand could be. Taking advantage of the recent reopening, I chose to give Phuket a try. The result was that Phuket really surprised me. The beauty of the Similan Islands is indescribable, and seeing the jelly-like sea for the first time completely healed me! Sitting on a beach chair, sipping coconut water, listening to the waves, and getting a Thai massage after a day of eating and wandering was just too comfortable and pleasant! The value for a 2-hour hot stone and essential oil massage for 200 is too good! Before going, I was also worried that after three years, they might take advantage of tourists and treat Chinese people differently, but most of the locals I met were actually very warm-hearted, kind, and simple. I encountered a fruit shop owner who ran a long way to catch up with a few Chinese girls, shouting in Thai that they couldn't understand, to give them the fruit they had bought but forgotten to take; on the day I left, the driver arranged for my airport transfer took a long detour along Kata-Karon-Patong Beach to let me see the sunset by the sea as we drove to the airport. One or two heartwarming incidents during a trip can fill the entire journey with warmth and emotion, and sprinkle sunshine over the memories of these short five days. My body has returned, but my heart remains in Thailand.

Phuket is very familiar to everyone, the three major beaches here are Patong Beach, Karon Beach, and Kata Beach, which are crowded with all kinds of tourists. Although the three major beaches are beautiful, they are too noisy for those seeking tranquility. In fact, many other beaches in Phuket are also worth visiting! For example, Mai Khao Beach, which has the longest coastline in Phuket, where you can quietly walk and enjoy the romantic sunset! It does not have the commercialization and vanity of the three major beaches, but it is full of vitality, small crabs, sea turtles, and the sea breeze are all evidence of the never-ending summer! ✈️Preparation before departure: passport, printed wine order, phone card, UnionPay savings card, carry cash 2000 rmb per person or 1w Thai baht per person 🏠 Accommodation: We chose to stay near Patong Beach, which is convenient for travel and has many places to eat and play. The hotel is very satisfied. There are two 711s within a hundred meters from the door, and the popular small hot pot is on the right side of the hotel. 👏Coming to Phuket, you must see the sea. Phuket has three major beaches, and it is very convenient to rent a car. You can rent a car for a half-day island tour (Patong Beach→Karon Beach→Kata Beach→Promthep Cape to watch the sunset) 1️⃣Kata Beach (Among the three major beaches, Kata is the favorite, with blue water, white sand, and relatively calm sea surface, suitable for lazing around) 2️⃣Karon Beach (Blue water, big waves, suitable for surfing) 3️⃣Patong Beach (The sea water is more turbid compared to the previous two, and there are the most water activities) 👏The second way to see the sea is to go out to sea🌊 ✅Coral Island + Emperor Island Day Tour The day tour reported on 🍑, only over a hundred per person, feels great, the itinerary is not rushed, very leisurely, plenty of time to play, snorkeling🤿, the sea water of Emperor Island is very blue, it is a jelly sea, but the waves are big, surfing is top-notch, Coral Island is not bad, basically no waves, soaking in the sea is too comfortable. ✅Similan Islands Day Tour The farthest and most tossing among the island hopping tours, but it's really beautiful, white sandy beach🏖️jelly sea🌊, there are two snorkeling🤿. Depart from the hotel at six in the morning to the pier⛵️, arrive at Similan Island at about ten, and the play time is relatively short, not recommended for those with children. ✅There are also Phi Phi Island and Egg Island. The sea water of Phi Phi Island is green, with snorkeling, and there is a feeling of Guilin landscape, with mountains and seas. Egg Island is very close to Phuket Island, suitable for parent-child travel, many small fish, the beach is gentle, and the water is relatively shallow. 👏Coming to Phuket, you must go to the night market 1️⃣Phuket Old Street Weekend Night Market (Sunday 16:00-22:00) If time can be arranged, you must go to this night market, which is very characteristic and has a great atmosphere. There are all kinds of food and fun. It is recommended to go early, the evening is more photogenic, there is sunset, the street is full of colorful lights, the bustling street, colorful architectural street. 2️⃣NAKA Night Market (Saturday and Sunday 17:00-22:00) This night market is relatively cheaper than other night markets, a local night market, large in scale, with two areas for eating and shopping, with various special delicacies, and live resident singing. 3️⃣Frog Night Market🐸 (Monday to Saturday 17:00-23:00) Very photogenic, with live resident singing, high face value, a variety of things are relatively complete, more tourists, the food is relatively expensive, but it is lively and the atmosphere is also good.

Going to Phuket now is the peak season, the cost is actually quite high, and the hotel is the main expense. Many good hotels are already booked, especially family-friendly ones. However, apart from the hotel, if you don't consider shopping, it's not too bad, it depends on how you play. Since you choose to travel during the peak season, you need to have a good mindset, at least the scenery you encounter is far ahead. Although it's cheaper during the summer vacation, there are always big waves and heavy rain, and it rains for a few days after playing for a few days.... , Offshore islands, if time is not enough, it is recommended to go to Similan, don't go too many. If you have enough time, it doesn't matter, go wherever you want, but it's not recommended to go to an island a day, it's very tiring X travel a holiday, not military training! (Or a day trip for a day, and then go to another island to stay) 1 Similan: The sea is really beautiful, no filter is needed, it's full of dreams, the disadvantage is that you have to get up early. Similan can't accommodate people, although there are boat stays, but people with poor sleep will be uncomfortable, those who like deep diving and have certificates can consider boat stays. 2 Phi Phi Island: A day trip is also possible, you can also stay on the island, there are many hotel choices, if you choose to stay on the island, you can go to the viewpoint to watch the scenery and take pictures, you can also charter a long tail boat near the pier to Maya Bay, Little Phi Phi Island, Bamboo Island, etc. 3 Emperor Island: It's not as lively as Phi Phi Island, but it's very original and quiet. The sea of Emperor Island is blue jelly, the sea of Phi Phi Island is gradient, and the part of Little Phi Phi Island is green, like jade. For the Phuket itinerary, I suggest you arrange it like this: 1 Patong Beach: Bar Street, Jiangxi Cold, Show Field, etc. are not far away, one day is enough, you can also experience Thai massage in Patong. Go to Banzaan to buy seafood and fruits, be sure to bargain. Jiangxi Cold shopping and dining can be solved, a lot of things are cabbage price, if the consumption exceeds 2K, remember to fill in the tax refund form 2 Karon Kata: Karon coastline is long, Kata has small hills. If you have plenty of time, you can stay for two or three days, blow the sea breeze, soak in the sea by the beach, drink some wine and play with the sand, watch the sunset, and lie flat in the hotel. Karon Viewpoint is average, it is recommended to go to Laem Sai Cliff Cafe 3 Phuket Town: The old street has a strong Nanyang style, the houses along the street are all colorful, and there are some exquisite small shops, coffee shops, all with unique styles, stroll, eat and take pictures in Phuket Town, it's very chic. If you go on Sunday, just stroll around the weekend night market There are also many ways to play in other areas, arranging the itinerary by region saves taxi fares, everyone knows that taxis in Phuket are expensive. I use Grab for taxi, purely because I don't want to waste time, compared to Bolt and Indrive, it's only about 30% more expensive (the whole journey probably won't cost more than 600). You can also take a double bar car/smart bus, which is more economical, equivalent to a bus. Cong 'Zong' Hao 'Phuket Alliance' They are all friends who have recently traveled to Phuket. We have a long time in Phuket and will find partners here~ There are hundreds of people here discussing strategies, avoiding pits together, and there are restaurant sharing documents, hotel selection guides, everyone is very enthusiastic and can chat!

My favourite destination. A place where nature, culture & nightlife meets. #beachlife #Thailand #phuket

Yes, Potong Beach in Phuket is great for just relaxing! The soft sand and the vast shoreline provide a perfect setting for a leisurely stroll. Especially during sunrise or sunset, it can be incredibly beautiful and serene. Just be mindful of the tides and avoid walking too close to the water during high tide to ensure an enjoyable walk. To get to Potong Beach in Phuket from the town area, you can take a taxi, a tuk-tuk, or rent a scooter. Taxis are the most convenient but might be pricier, while tuk-tuks are cheaper but might require some negotiation on the fare. Scooter rentals offer flexibility but ensure you're comfortable riding in traffic and have the required license. Foodie? No worries! There are variety of food options available. You'll find beachfront restaurants, bars, and cafes offering both local Thai cuisine and international dishes. Fresh seafood is often a highlight, but there's a range of choices to suit different tastes and preferences. From casual beachside snacks to full-course meals, you'll have plenty to choose from while enjoying your time at Potong Beach.#BeachParadise #beachlife #Phuket

We stayed 5 days 4 night at Phuket and this place offer wonderful beaches and good. We stayed at Phuket old town, Karon beach and the famous patong beach as well. All 3 area has given us a different taste of what Phuket can offer. The highlight of the trip was the famous elephant reserve sanctuary located in the middle of Phuket near to patong beach. This beautiful place preserve the nature of elephant and give them a safe haven place to roam around. Thou it’s at the pricy side per pax around 150usd. You get to spend the day with these majestic animal and learn more about how animal cruelty impacted their life and understand what’s need to be done to protect them. Overall, I have learn so much more in Phuket about the nature compare to other places and I will definitely return here again!

Patong Beach is the most popular and famous beach of Phuket island in Thailand. It is well-maintained, with clean facilities and plenty of shade options. The vibrant atmosphere along the shoreline is infectious, with a plethora of beach bars, restaurants, and shops offering a wide variety of delicious food and unique souvenirs. The stunning sunset views were simply breathtaking, painting the sky with vibrant hues that left me in awe. It's important to be mindful when walking on the beach. One thing to note is that there may be oil beneath the sand, which can potentially ruin your shoes or slippers. It's advisable to pay attention to where you step and be cautious to avoid any unfortunate mishaps. #bangkoktrip

On the main road of Patong is a tiger themed restaurant that is very big and popular with tourists, The restaurant is called Tiger Kingdom and it has lots of different tiger statues around the restaurant to add to the charm. They have lots of screens around the restaurant showing sports games and an area for a band to play. The food in the restaurant is mostly Thai and the curry/noodle dishes were very good

#exploreasia Patong beach is the most popular beach resort town in Phuket. Along the lively street, there are a lot of bars, clubs, restaurants and street foods/drinks that make it a super crowded place because most of the tourists will be here to find some entertainments and dinner during night time! Walking to the end of the street, there is a 3km long beach. During daylight time, you can either chill on the beach, join some water activities, or just sit at the restaurant beside to have a drink! If you like to stay somewhere accessible to the beach, you can consider te hotels ans resorts here! I have to say that the beach is impressing because it’s just so clean even this is a touristic place!! Really highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
