About Phuket

Thailand's largest island: beaches, island hopping and a lively old town

Phuket is Thailand's biggest island and its busiest beach destination. The west coast has the main beaches, Patong is the party hub, and quieter bays such as Kata, Karon and Kamala suit families and couples.

The real draw is the sea around it. Day trips go to Phang Nga Bay and James Bond Island, the Phi Phi Islands and the Similan Islands, and Phuket Old Town has Sino-Portuguese shophouses, cafés and street food.

Best time
November to April for dry, sunny weather and calm seas. May to October is the monsoon season, with rain and rougher water, and some island tours and the Similan Islands close.
How long
Four to seven days.
Getting around
Taxis are expensive and often unmetered; Grab and Bolt apps are cheaper. Many visitors rent a scooter, but accidents are common. Tour operators include hotel transfers.
