Island boat trips
The best memory for a group. Compare Racha or Coral for a speedboat day, or Phi Phi for a longer day. Groups of more than eight can ask for a private boat. Early start, rougher sea in the rainy season: see the best time to visit Phuket.
Beach club and sunset
YONA Floating Beach Club: infinity pool, four bars and a restaurant; the afternoon session is adults only (minimum age 20 per the listing). For the end of the day, the sunset catamaran cruise combines well with dinner.
Patong and Bangla Road at night
Bangla Road is a pedestrian street of bars and clubs, lively late into the night, with some adult venues. The Patong guide explains the area. For a calmer evening, the Simon Cabaret (revue show, not for children) and Thai boxing at Patong stadium are the two classic outings.
Rules to know
- Alcohol: you must be 20; shop sales run 11 am to midnight and are banned on Buddhist holidays. See before you go: laws and safety.
- E-cigarettes and drugs: banned; cannabis remains tightly regulated. Read before you go: laws and safety.
- Scooters and jet skis: do not ride after drinking, helmet required, and beware of jet-ski renters demanding money for imaginary damage; see scams and safety in Phuket and renting a scooter.
- Sea: respect red flags on beaches in the rainy season; rip currents are dangerous.
- Dress: swimwear on the beach only; cover up in town and in temples.
