Nightlife options on the island of Phuket are diverse and unique.  At night especially, one gets the feeling of, “Wow, I’m in Thailand!”  With fire dancers, open aired cooking, lighted paper lanterns, and great live music, the night scene should not to be missed.

            The main area for nightlife on the island is located on the Southwest side and is called Patong Beach.  If a bland night out is on the agenda, go somewhere else because this place is spicy and flavorful.  With a unique atmosphere, live music, delicious food and excellent entertainment, Patong beach is an amazing place.  Visit Patong for more information.

             For a more low key and mellow experience, head towards Karon beach, which is located just south of Patong.  More family friendly, the main attractions here are the great food and ethnic dancing shows.  Visit Karon for more information.

             A more local feel can be found in Phuket town.  This area is famous for its authentic Thai food.  More visitor information can be found at Phuket town.

             Other areas offering nightlife are Rawai Beach, Kamala Beach and Bang Tao bay.  Information about these areas and the style of nightlife they offer can be found at Phuket Nightlife.
