Phuket's Beaches
Phuket Island Thailand

Phuket is a world famous tourist destination.
The reason for that is quite simple-it’s fantastic beaches.
Warm, crystal blue waters, soft white sand and a perfect tropical climate combine to make Phuket beaches among the best in Asia and the world.
The inviting waters of the tranquil Andaman Sea are perfect for swimming, snorkelling, diving and other water sports.
The island has plenty of beaches to choose from.

Not surprisingly the best ones are well developed and usually busy, though not packed.
However it’s just as easy to rent a bike and go looking for a small secluded beach tucked away somewhere on the island.
Most of the swimmable beaches are found on the west facing side of Phuket island.

Beaches on Phuket Island are well set up to cater to visitors with sun lounges
and umbrellas and vendors strolling the beach selling fruit,
snacks and ice cream.
Most of Phuket Island beaches have a number of restaurants and stalls
offering food and drinks either on the beach itself or within a hundred metres.
Beachfront massage stands are also common with shaded platforms
where talented masseuses are happy to work out those niggling aches and pains while you are hypnotized by the picture perfect scenery.
Sometimes you needn’t even go looking for them, they wander by offering their services.
