Kick off your Phuket adventure early with the sunrise at Promthep Cape, situated on the southern tip of the province. Most tourists come here in the evenings to catch the sunset, but the spectacular sunrise experience here is an equally stunning sight to see. You'll need to complete an easy 10-minute trek to reach the viewpoint though, so do wear comfortable footwear!
7.00am - 10.00am: Explore Nai Harn Beach

Spend the rest of your morning soaking in the sun and sea breeze at Nai Harn Beach, a picturesque white sandy bay that is quieter and away from most of the tourist crowds. There are also plenty of eateries and street food stalls near the lagoon for you to grab your breakfast, as well as recreation parks and a lovely temple that are worth the visit.

If you've got some time to spare, we highly recommend heading up the iconic Karon Viewpoint too (just a 10-minute drive away!), which does not fail to deliver spectacular vistas of the surrounding hills, beaches and sea.
10.30am - 11.30am: The Big Buddha

Visit the Big Buddha, an important and probably the most revered landmark in Phuket. Also known as The Great Buddha of Phuket, this massive statue sits majestically atop the Nakkerd Hill, made up of concrete and Burmese white marble, and is 148 feet tall! From up here, you'll also be granted with a stunning 360-degree view of the island.

The rest of your day can be easily spent exploring the Old Phuket Town. With European-style colloquial buildings and quirky shops tucked away in narrow streets, it’s hard to recall that you are on an island famed for being a tropical beach getaway. Go on a stroll along the colourful Thalang Road, or visit the various cafes and handicraft stores that sell locally-made souvenirs and knick knacks.
