Patong Beach is the center of Phuket’s action, famous for its long shoreline and vibrant nightlife. Patong Beach itself is the top choice for the beach and water sports, though nearby Kalim Beach is a quieter alternative for those wanting to escape the main crowds. For shopping and entertainment, the Jungceylon Shopping Center serves as a major hub, while the nearby Bangla Road is the island’s most famous nightlife destination. If you’re looking for a quieter afternoon, a trip to Paradise Beach is the perfect spot to explore the coastline’s beautiful sunsets away from the central hustle.
Dining on Patong Beach
Along Patong Beach, many roadside stalls and wandering vendors selling a wide variety of food, drinks, snacks, and ice cream. You can also find many sarongs, beach mats, sunglasses, and souvenirs for sale.
A large part of Beach Road (from Haad Patong Alley to Prachanukhro Road) is lined with restaurants and cafés, including international fast-food chains such as McDonald’s, KFC, and Burger King. There’s a good choice of restaurants and bars right on the beach itself, including Sole Mio, Chez Bernard and Patong Beachfront Food Court.
Facilities on Patong Beach
Public toilets are spaced out along Patong Beach, and you usually have to pay a few baht to use them. There are plenty of parking spaces for small motorcycles and scooters along the beach road, but they can fill up over the course of the day. Due to its popularity, it’s best to come early in the morning to find a good spot. Sun loungers are available on small areas of the sand and you can always lay down your own mat or towel anywhere along the beach.
What to do on Patong Beach
Patong Beach is most popular for jet skiing and parasailing. Operators can be found every few hundred meters, particularly around the end of Bangla Road. Exercise caution and wear a lifejacket if you’re interested in motorized watersports. Most jet skis are not insured and scams are quite common. You can find some good snorkeling by the rocks at the northern end of Patong Beach. There are many vendors offering snorkel equipment right on the beach.
Local masseuses are set up in the shaded areas of Patong Beach. An hour-long Thai massage usually starts from 200 baht. Other types of massage and foot reflexology are also available
