Phuket Nightlife

Phuket provides all the best that Thai nightlife can offer, and if you venture out a little, there is something for everyone. There are plenty of beer and go-go bars, but also more upmarket wine and cocktail bars, rocking nightclubs, as well as small and cool little music venues and gay hang-outs. Patong beach is the epicenter, but other, more out-of the way beaches may be better for couples and younger music aficionados.

Phuket Bars

Phuket bars range from centralized monoliths on the beach roads, to small drinking huts on the beach, back to sophisticated wine lounges in hotels. The pace, décor and clientele varies greatly, so we’re pretty sure you’ll find one that suits your particular taste.

Phuket Beer Bars

Phuket beer bars usually comprise of a couple of stools, and counter, and a few girls working the trade. There’s usually a board game on two around somewhere – connect 4 or the like, and in the busier areas these spots make a good vantage point for people watching. Most beer bars in Patong are off Bangla Road in complexes like Tiger, or down sois including Soi Eric, Soi Gonzo, Soi Seadragon and Soi Crocodile. North of Bangla along Rat-U-Thit road is Sukhumvit Rd, which is also a beer bar complex

Phuket Go-go Bars

These are similar to beer bars but the girls will sometimes be dancing. Prices are generally higher for drinks and the service is pushier. There area few small go-go bars on Soi Seadragon, but the majority is on Bangla Road.

Phuket Live Music

Bangla, the beach road and Rat-U-Thit Road in Patong have live music venues (usually Irish pubs) and Phuket Town has a small number of venues that are more Thai orientated. Whatever the night, you’re sure to find some live music entertainment on Phuket.

Phuket Pool & Sports Bars

Plenty of bars around the island show live sport, predominantly the English Premiership. Live matches usually start at around 9pm Thai time and continue into the early hours of the morning. Rugby, Aussie Rules and Formula One are also popular. For pool, head down to Bangla Road in Patong. The favoured game is 8-ball and winner stays on. Write your name on the board and wait your turn.

Phuket Nightclubs & Discos

Phuket's major discos are line Patong, the entertainment centre of the island. The entrance fee or cover charge some times includes one or two drinks. Although Patong takes centre stage for nightlife, it’s worth looking around the island for something that suits your style.

Seduction Discotheque is the newest and biggest disco in Patong. We offer our customers an opportunity to enjoy themselves in an atmosphere unlike the disco's already existing in Patong.

Patong Nightlife – Phuket

Bars, nightclubs, karaoke massage and go-go bars, this is the single male orientated centre of West coast Thailand nightlife and it lives up to its name. The action is focused on Bangla Road and Soi Sunset.

Banana Disco in Patong is a run-of-the mill late night drinking and dancing spot, with plenty of inebriated tourists and girls on the hunt, good fun if that’s what you are up for.

La Salsa is a nightspot with a difference in Patong, with quirky décor, great house band playing Latino all night and well-made cocktails and tapas. Somewhere to shake it on the dancefloor, and get away from the girly bars of the area.

Surin Nightlife

Liquid Lounge is a favorite in the hip Surin Beach. There is a cool music policy with. Occasional guest DJs playing. Liquid Lounge is also a great place to watch live sports.

Re Bar at Indigo Pearl is a real insiders tip. Far from the madding crowd, this luxuriant hip hotel down on Nai Yang beach in the north of the island has an excellent resident DJ, snazzy cocktails, Tapas, Thai and Japanese bites and fantastically cool surroundings in which to relax and watch the sunset.

Phuket Town nightlife

Phuket Town nightlife is Thai orientated and much cheaper than in Patong. It’s certainly worth a look if you want to escape the international crowd.

The Watermark located at the Boat Lagoon Marina, has gained a reputation as a place to see and be seen amongst ex-pats. It is rather swanky, overlooking the exclusive yachts in the marina, and catering to some of the islands high-fliers

Karon Nightlife and Kata Nightlife

Nightlife in Karon is in Karon Circle and Luang Pho Chuan Road, with some quieter bars located on Patak Road (East). Kata has some reasonable nightlife, too.

Ska Bar on Kata Beach has cheap cocktails served by Thai dreds, mainstream reggae, hip-hop and ska and fire dancing shows attracting a young crowd.
