Patong Beach on Phuket is one of the most popular tourist areas due to its long beach and easy access. It offers many water sports and nightlife activities. Nearby beaches include Karon Beach, Kata Beach, and Nai Harn Beach, which are less crowded. Surin Beach is known for its luxury resorts like Amanpuri and high-end homes overlooking the Andaman Sea. While not on the beach, Rising Sun Residence in Chalong offers villas in hillside gardens with pools and jacuzzis, suitable for exploring Phuket each day.
