Patong Beach

Situated on Phuket's west coast, approximately 40 minute's drive from Phuket International Airport, Patong Beach is one of Phuket's most popular beaches. At almost three kilometers long, the Patong beach itself consists of beautiful white sand and is set in a deep oval bay, ringed by lush green mountains. Despite the higher level of development here the ocean remains clear and clean.

At night, Patong is the center of all nightlife activity on Phuket. It centers around the main east-west street of Soi Bangla, and here you find go-go bars, beer bars, restaurants and discos. A good time can be had by all.

Patong Beach is a public beach and there are no closed or reserved areas for any of the resorts. The beach chairs and umbrellas, however, are rented from private vendors for a small fee. Many other services are available on the beach such as traditional Thai massage, sailing and the rental of jetskis.
