Governor of Phuket Province
Phuket Cape
Promthep Cape
With superb birds eye views and probably the best sunset spot it is popular with tourists and locals. Local vendors serve spicy food and are a good spot to enjoy a cold drink and watch the day disappear.
Cape Panwa
Largely private with the Cape Panwa Hotel this small white sanded beach is a good antidote to the hustle and bustle of many of Phuket waterfronts, with a drink in hand the views out towards Phi Phi are very pretty.
Cape Yamu
Tucked away on Cape Yamu are some beautiful, little-known beaches. On the south side of the cape they have expansive views west, across Sapam Bay to Phuket Town, while on the north side the sand stretches almost the length of the peninsula and looks out at the spectacular islands of Phang Nga Bay. The sun sets over Phuket Island as Yamu is on the East coast and lights up the islands of the bay and her mountains in rainbow colours.
Laem Ka
Laem Ka Just south of the Phuket Island Resort Hotel and north of Rawai Beach is a small rocky bay, popular with Thais at the weekend.
Laem Sing Beach
Laem Sing Beach One of the Islands smallest beaches and local spot requires a steep walk and inside knowledge, but once there you could be on another planet. Busy in high season and renowned for its Dec – March Sunday evening beach party with DJs and great cocktails. A hot spot and worth the effort.
