Luxury Beach

Nestled on a hidden bay on the east coast of the island, the resort offers access to the powdery sands of Layan Beach, topped with comfortable sun loungers and plush day beds. Soak up the famous Phuket sunshine as you sip on refreshments from The Mojito Factory atop the sand, or embrace the complimentary watersports on offer – including stand-up paddle boarding and kayaking.

Whilst temperatures hover around 30°C all year round, probably the best time to visit is between November and March, when there’s little rain and the Andaman Sea is calm.

Getting There

Flight Information
British Airways and Thai Airways from London Heathrow to Bangkok. Etihad Airways from London Heathrow and Manchester (via Abu Dhabi). Flights with Emirates (via Dubai) from London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Manchester, Birmingham, Newcastle and Glasgow are also available. Onward connections from Bangkok to Phuket are available.

Flight Time
London Heathrow to Bangkok, 11 hours 15 minutes.
Onward connecting flight from Bangkok to Phuket City: 1 hour, 25 minutes.

Beaches

Phuket’s considerable size and indented shoreline comprises some thirty strands, many unspoilt and a far cry from the neon-lit sands of Patong. The west coast dishes out spectacular sunsets and the likes of Bang Tao, a four-mile arc of silky sands, and the celebrity-roamed beaches of Surin and Pansea, trimmed with coconut palms. Another gem is Freedom Beach, a little harder to reach but well worth the effort for its white sands and lush jungle. Meanwhile, striking Mai Khao showcases virtually seven miles of crunchy, golden shores just made for beachcombing. Other notable beaches include Nai Thon, Kata, Karon, Kamala and Nai Harn in the south of Phuket, yachts bobbing in the bay.

Beaches
Scuba Diving

Phuket is a famed diving centre, offering gin-clear seas, healthy reefs, a profusion of marine-life and sites for all levels. The best spots are found off smaller, neighbouring islands, though Phuket’s west coast itself offers some alluring shallows; Kata, Freedom Beach and Bang Tao are just a few of these spots. Highly recommended sites further afield - though easily reached by scenic boat trip - include Anemone Reef and Shark Reef (where meek leopard sharks swim in large numbers), King Cruiser Wreck, Koh Dok Mai’s superb wall dive, the famous Phi Phi Islands, and Richelieu Rock in the Surin Islands National Park, considered Thailand’s top diving site.

Scuba Diving
Temples

Phuket is dotted with beautifully decorated Buddhist temples (known as wats) and sacred Chinese shrines. The famed Big Buddha is an island landmark, clearly visible for miles around from its hilltop location between Kata and Chalong. Get up close to this colossal monument and enjoy sweeping, stunning panoramic views across the island. Wat Chalong is another mesmerizing temple, featuring pagodas and intricate décor with countless reflections radiating from hundreds of pieces of tiny glass. In Phuket Town stands the large, golden sitting Buddha at Wat Khao Rang, as well as the Chinese Jui Tui Shrine, one of the most revered centres in Phuket.

Temples
Entertainment

Phuket’s nightlife offers everything from showy go-go bars and street performers, to thatched beer shacks and glamorous beach clubs. Patong has gained a somewhat notorious reputation and is an epicentre of revelry – most visitors are intrigued to catch a glimpse of this thriving party zone, packed with every kind of bar, nightclub and show imaginable. Perhaps the biggest and most extravagant stage show is Phuket FantaSea, showcasing an exotic storyline that blends fantasy with tradition, acted out by a cast of hundreds, performing elephants and jaw-dropping acrobatics. Another popular venue is Siam Niramit, a visually spectacular enactment combining songs, dances and martial arts.
