Discover Phuket by Hire Car

Phuket is a gorgeous island in the Andaman Sea in southern Thailand, measuring 50 kilometres long and around 22 kilometres wide.

Separated from the mainland only by a narrow waterway, the island with the capital of the same name lies about 850 kilometres from Bangkok.

Today, Phuket is a fully developed tourist destination that is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Thailand.

On the west coast, the picturesque sandy beaches in particular, including the famous stretch of coastline at Patong, attract crowds of people from all over the world to Phuket every year.

Among the most beautiful beaches on Phuket are Kata Yai, Kata Noi and Karon. Almost everywhere you will find a perfect infrastructure with small restaurants, bars, shops and sports equipment rentals.

Discover Phuket Island

To explore the island of Phuket, you should definitely take a hire car. Especially the Buddhist temple Wat Chalong in the southwest of the island is an interesting destination.

Who wants to experience a dreamlike sunset, is at the southern tip of the island, in Laem Phromphtep, exactly at the right address. From here you have a fabulous view of the sea and the adjacent small islands.

Absolutely imposing and of special, picturesque beauty is also the 200-year-old temple Put Yaw, once built by Chinese immigrants in Phuket City.

A boat trip from Chalong Bay is also worthwhile. Within 45 minutes you can reach the Ko Raya archipelago, with paradisiacal, almost deserted, beaches.
