They head toward Kata and believe they have seen Boocat. But this video will show you just how truly amazing this place is. Now we will show you the largest island in Thailand. We are now here at Kata Beach, one of the most famous beaches in Phuket. Kata Beach is one of the most suitable beaches for swimming and relaxation. Yet it becomes crowded. Located along the west coast of Phuket, directly south of Karon Beach About 10 to 15 minutes by car south of Patong Beach which is the concert area that we will show you shortly Just south of here lies the Kata Yiu and Kata Nui area. Since it faces the Andaman Sea, it enjoys a magnificent sunset. There are also numerous different resorts here along the beach. making it one of the best destinations for people who They wish to spend a perfect holiday in Bukit Alright, my friends, we've finally arrived at Patong Beach. This is actually the most famous beach in all of Bukit. Like Kata Beach, this one also faces the Andaman Sea. Thus, it enjoys a magnificent sunset. You can see many umbrellas or traditional boats here. People are practicing jet skiing. This is the first beach area for those seeking everything. Including the nightlife here in Bukit. Let me give you a little bit of history. It is commonly said that the name means something resembling a banana leaf forest. It refers to what the area looked like before all this tourism. I'll share more history with you as the video continues. Alright, guys We're here at the ultimate nightlife destination in Bukit. This is the Pandla Road. Let's begin Yes, the Pandla Road is here. You can see they've just put up a completely new sign. For those who haven't visited Phuket in a while They have a new gesture. This occurred in October 2026. This area here is essentially the largest concert venue on Earth every single night. There are few places in the world where such a massive street festival is held on a pedestrian-only street. You might see it in Bangkok on Khao San Road, or perhaps in Ho Chi Minh City. But this place is completely noisy every single night. Alright, now let's do some activities related to nature. We will move a little outside the island. These are the viewing points of Vung Tau Bay There are now several different viewing points where you can enjoy breathtaking views. Especially in the morning This, which you see here with the glass bridge, is called Pion Sky Walk in Nong Shi It is a very beautiful tourist attraction here. But if the viewing points are insufficient and you truly wish to explore the Van Nga Gulf, There are numerous different tours available, allowing you to travel between the diverse islands. It is certainly one of the most beautiful bays in Thailand. The natural environment here is simply amazing. They also have James Bond Island. The reason they are called James Bond Island is that one of James Bond movie scenes were filmed here While you are here, you will notice a Muslim village called Kobani. It is fascinating because it is considered a floating village in the middle of Vangdanga. There is another boat tour you can take as well. South of Van Nga Gulf, heading toward the Viví Islands These islands lie between Krabi and Phuket and are considered One of the most beautiful island chains in the world There are several different islands there, in addition to Mai Bay. The internationally famous one that is periodically closed and reopened Therefore, depending on the time of your visit, it may be open or closed as they They are trying to restore the ecosystem and natural biodiversity. You can actually stay overnight here on these islands if you'd like to spend the night. This is the place where Kofi Island is located in Don. It is the only inhabited island. While Kofi in Leih is famous for Maya Bay and other attractions Here we are, at the great Buddha statue on the hill. It has just been reopened. Yes, we are now returning to Phuket Island. This site is actually located directly above Kata Beach. It reopened a few months ago in 2026. I would like to say that there will be no new fundamental improvements that have made the statue. Is the Big Buddha more or less interesting than it was before it closed? The reason for its closure was landslides caused by rainfall. Entry is free, but you will need to pay for transportation to get here. You must pass through Châlons, located on the eastern side of the island. There are dress codes here, and I've seen them enforcing them. especially with people wearing swimwear or Bikinis or extremely short shorts or revealing clothing And here we are now at the southernmost point of Fuki This is the head of Pirumtib, which is the southern point. A wonderful place to enjoy the sunset view We will now begin navigating between the islands starting from Rawa. This is also located in the southern part of the island. There are many islands you can explore, such as Kouratchayi and Kohi. including also Coral Beach and Mawzi Beach That's what you can do there You just need to go to Vera Playa beach. And searching for a long-tailed boat to take you there Sometimes you can get a private boat. Sometimes you will go with other people. If you choose to go to some of these islands off the southern tip You will spend a long time there, from 6 to 8 hours. So expect to spend the entire day Another adventure for island-hopping you can embark on It's going to the Sorens. This area is located opposite Pham Nga. It approaches Ranoan. Therefore, it is a full-day journey. But the blue water, my God, is amazing. Another slightly easier option that closely resembles the Surin Islands is the Similan Islands. As I said, this entire region lies off the coast of Fane Mga. It can be said that it is close to Khau Lak. But it takes from one to two hours by fast boat to get there. But the advantage is a more relaxed atmosphere with white sand beaches. In addition to an excellent diving experience So I must say, if you're looking for an amazing dive, This is the place you should go to. Now let's talk about beach clubs. One of the most famous clubs here is a beach club located on a boat called Yuna. Yuna describes herself as the world's first floating beach club. The club is located on a boat with an area of 1,200 square meters. It is a multi-deck ship that can accommodate up to 500 guests. It moves around Bukit depending on the weather, tides, and other factors. But there are even more beach clubs here, especially in Bang Tao. which, based on practical experience, includes the largest number of clubs The beach I saw anywhere in Bukit They have some clubs in Baton, Kata, and Karun. But nothing compares to what they have there in Band Two. And now we are here in Andamanda. This is the large Thai amusement park in Phuket. It's a water park located in the Kato area near the city of Bukit and Patong Beach. I think it's about twenty minutes from Baton. Moreover, it is located near Central Book Shopping Center. It was opened in the year 2022. I went there and was truly amazed by the beauty of this water park. The park opens its gates from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Then they have the Emerald Forest area, which opens a little later. But if you want a ticket to enter here It will cost you around 1,800 baiya for adults and 1,200 baiya for children. Because this water park has a Dutch character I would like to share some facts about Boeket. It was formerly called Gwamshelun when it was an island used for tin mining. Today it is called Bukit, a name derived originally from the Malay word "bukit," meaning hill Now we will set off to explore a wonderful beach in Bukit. This beach is called Freedom Beach, located directly south of Batong. Therefore, it is easily accessible if you are staying at Patong Beach. You can ride a bicycle or a motorcycle and then walk downhill. To the Freedom Beach area, and you will arrive there There are a few restaurants or pubs, if I may use that expression, such as Beach bars, but there's no major infrastructure here. Just be careful when climbing on a hot day. It's hot here, and the return journey is uphill. You can reach here on foot or by a long dhow boat. However, the service usually operates from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. And now, here's a fun activity you can do: attending a Thai cooking class. You can learn how to cook Thai food. Such a lesson usually lasts half a day. Then you can go back home and prepare a delicious Thai meal upon your arrival. The price per person varies, but it is usually between 60 and 75 US dollars. Some of you may come to Thailand because you wish to In the vision of elephants or visiting an elephant sanctuary The important thing to know here is that it does not Riding elephants is recommended, but feeding them is acceptable. Now we will talk about Muay Thai training. Some of you come to TikTok, specifically to Ravi or Thailand, where Muay Thai training is available in the southern part of Tokyo. After a long day of adventure, you can enjoy a massage session. That's why they say "sabai sabai," which simply means "relax." As you can see here, this is a cucumber face mask to cool your skin after exposure to sunlight. You can get a foot massage here. Time or back massage or Thai massage They are all really great experiences here in Bukit. Now we are talking about the Karun monitoring point. This is a great observation point where you can see the beaches. Karun Nowy and Kata, and Karun from afar, especially on a clear day. This is a beautiful place to take some photos. Now let's talk about another wonderful beach This is Karun Beach, located between Batnab Beach and Kateh. But in fact, it is located directly north of Qat'a. This is another great place to find a resort or hotel. In fact, we will make a full video about the top ten places to stay in Bukit. I'll place Rata below in the description so you can see him after this video. But Carron is one of the top five places to stay. And now we are here at the Chalon Temple. This temple is located in the Chalon area, north of Ravi. Directly in the southeastern part of the island The temple itself has undergone renovation and they are currently working on expanding it. I would like to say that this temple is larger than the Great Buddha Statue. But the large Buddha statue is impressive because it is located on The hill grants you panoramic 360-degree views. Here is a more traditional Buddhist temple. Now I want to show you one of my favorite small beaches. This is actually Yanwei Beach. It is located there, near the head of Pyrmont. This area here is a quiet and beautiful place. Except when the place is crowded with many people during the peak season But most likely, this would be a better area for diving. If you're looking for a small beach that offers easy access to swimming Parking spaces are limited here. I have noticed many people arriving here at the same time. I'm just giving you some insights about this place. I love it, but not when it's too crowded. So it's something to keep in mind when you're thinking about coming here. Another place to go to nearby here If you're looking for a beautiful viewpoint I think it's even better than the head of Perontheep. It is the Windmill Observatory. The wonderful thing here is that you get a beautiful view of Nahrain Beach. Wanaihren is located right next to Yanui Beach. About a five-minute drive away But it is much larger and can accommodate large crowds. It features some beautiful beach waves there. On our channel, Island Hopper TV Beaches In reality, we are thoroughly reviewing each of these beaches. Alright, guys We are here in the old city of Bukhara. They have a night market on Sundays. Yes, the night markets in Bukit City truly have amazing energy. I mean, she might be the best you'll find anywhere in Bukit for night markets. It resembles a blend of Portuguese and Chinese cultures. Here in Tieling, there are many different street foods. You can also find some souvenirs and some essential oils. Who knows what they're selling here in these night markets? And now we are here at Kamala Observation Post, another fascinating observation point. Located north of Patong, it offers a view toward Kamala Beach. I would like to say that this region is not given sufficient appreciation. Kamala also ranked among the best accommodation options in Bukit. It is a very unique and quieter beach located north of Patong. One more thing I want to tell you guys If you are thinking about coming to Thailand I strongly recommend watching the video we made on our podcast channel. What is a Land Hocker TV Podcast? where we presented the top twenty islands in Thailand worth visiting Yes, I've traveled all over Thailand to explore these islands for you. That's how I came to know about Karun Beach, because I wandered all around Bukit銮 I've been here at least ten times. The other place I truly loved is located just north of Kamala, and it's Surin Beach. This beach is quieter and more relaxing. I stayed at Holiday Inn and some other hotels in Surin. I can tell you that this beach might provide some of The most beautiful sunset you'll find anywhere on the island One thing regarding swimming at these beaches You will notice there is more than yellow and red. They indicate cloud currents. You must take it seriously. Because cloud currents are already occurring in Buketen Especially when the waves are very strong If you see a red flag That means you shouldn't go swimming. Therefore, do not be among those people who think Oh, don't worry about it. I know how to swim. Because cloud currents can carry away anyone Then directly north of Surin and Kamala You will find it at Pantao This is an interesting area. This is a place experiencing continuous growth. They were building more and more hotels and residential complexes. The place began to take on a more local character. It does not have a nightlife or party atmosphere like you would find in Baton Rouge. But it includes many beach clubs during the day. The resorts here seem more suitable for families. I would like to say that the people who are looking to settle in Bukit For a longer period, they have been leaning toward the Bantu here in northern Buktu. Another thing I always enjoy doing is getting custom-made clothes. I always go to Sam Colchicine, which is located there on Pandla Street in Bukit. They offer the best prices and the friendliest customer service. Yes, welcome to Sam Colchis If you would like to customize a suit, we offer a special price. You can see the wonderful shirt he made for her. Specifically designed to perfectly fit short pants This is the pants he made for me, and they're of better quality than I had hoped for. Therefore, I definitely recommend the Sam Collection. Good prices and high quality Of course, you'll find many tailors in Patong. This is my favorite one, but there are many other options as well. Now let's talk about those sunset views. You can see it on Phuket almost anywhere along the beach. But as I said, Surin Beach is probably the best one. Batonb and Kata are also famous for their sunset views. The important thing to remember is that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. So if you want to watch the sunset, you should Presence on the western side of the island Now let's go take a look at a jewelry store in Phuket city. Yes, guys, I've come here to the largest gemstone store in the world. This store is located here in Fuku. I bought a black onyx bracelet and a tiger's eye stone. Really good prices I told someone that I'm looking for a genuine bracelet. They said, "You can go to a jewelry store on the beach." I said, "What is the best store that offers the highest quality?" In the end, they brought me here. I said, "Oh, I didn't know that Fukui had" The largest gemstone store in the world You can verify it yourselves. I asked Chat GPT, and indeed, it is the largest gemstone store in the world. It's akin to a comprehensive experience. It means you can ride this boat and they'll show you a bit of history. I think the main stones that come from Phuket is the ruby and some other stones. You will find all of that here, in this large store. As I mentioned earlier, before Phuket became a tourist destination for enjoying beaches Its basic economy relied on tin mining. This is an interesting transformation. How did it transition from a tin mining hub to a tourism destination in Thailand? Watch the following video about the best accommodation options in Phuket. Click here directly
