Patong Beach
Patong Beach is the most popular beach in Phuket. It is located on the west coast of the island. Unfortunately, many consider it the dirtiest beach in Phuket. After the pandemic, it has been cleaned up, and municipal employees clean the area daily. Therefore, claims about its pollution cannot be called justified at the moment. The length of Patong is about 3 km of beach line. It is located north of Karon Beach. This area is famous for its beach entertainment and nightlife centers located on Bangla Road. For a beach holiday, it is better to choose the northern part of Patong, there the sand is whiter and the sea is more transparent. In addition, there are usually fewer vacationers there even at the height of the season.
