concentration of tourists. It is located on the West Coast of
Phuket. The tropical beach is 4km long deep inside a protective
bay, ringed with high green lush green mountains. The white sand

of solitude, but definitely suitable for those looking for a lively
holiday. There is a wide variety of beer bars, discotechques,
abaret shows and go-go bars. Patong also has a very lively gay
scene, concentrated to Paradise complex area on Rath-U-thit Road
