Phuket
has an incrediblby diverse array of nightlife and entertainment that will
amaze you during your stay here. There are the famous pubs and bars along
Patong's Soi Bangla, Soi Bangla is the heart and soul of Patong Beach.
Here is where you will find as much nightlife as you can handle. From
approximately 11 a.m. - 2a.m. there are plenty of watering holes to keep
you occupied and refreshed. Of course there are the beautiful Thai ladies
working in the bars to keep you entertained whether it is for some enlightening
conversation, or perhaps for a game of backgammon or other popular board
game,the beautiful ago-go girls who will enchant you with their beauty,
the "girls" that dance on the bars at "Soi Katoey"
(who might have previously been performing at Simon Cabaret).

Is this Thailand or Spain ?
Many
people can remember when Patong
beach, Phuket's main resort, was a few bungalows.
It is now a major international resort. However the whole Island has become
a major tourist destination with several resort areas and large hotel
resorts all round the island.
Phuket Town, the official state capital, is a hive of industry as well
as a port.
Patong Beach is the main area that will interest our readers, but that
does not mean to say there is
not life elsewhere.
Patong has a vast variety of nightlife from small beer bars to modern
flashy cocktail lounges and gogos.
It also has one of the latest nightlife areas in Thailand. The beach is
a popular daytime destination and is safe to swim providing you watch
the currents in certain seasons. However no problem if your idea of swimming
is a gentle paddle. The beach is large enough for those who want to find
a little relatively clear space, but of course, the beach traders will
still find you. Being such a vast tourist attraction, which these days
is heavily focused on couples and families means, that almost every tourist
attraction is available. The Phuket Fantasia show is, by all reports,
well worth a visit. There are four good golf courses on the island.
After perusing Soi Bangla, many visitors head to the local discos for
some dancing and mingling at such locations as the Banana Disco, Safari
Pub, and the Shark Club. After 3 a.m. the action starts to heat up at
Soi Sunset (appropriately named as these bars usually go until the sun
rises).
There are also many night time shopping centers and bazaars in which to
pick up that perfect souvenir for your friends and relatives who could
not make the trip.
