Unlock the colorful Phuket Island with a summer self-driving tour

Sunshine, beaches, enchanting sunsets The summer of Phuket Island🌴 never stops. Summer is about heading to the islands. So go to Phuket and give yourself a Thai-style🇹🇭 vacation. 📸Some recommended photo check-in spots 🔸Amari Phuket: An invincible sea view lobby, with a view full of transparent jelly sea. Have an afternoon tea here, and the vacation atmosphere is maxed out 🔸Cliff Cafes: Several cliff cafes or restaurants are basically between Karon and Kata Beach. If you like the forest vibe, you can go to Laem Sai, and there's also the less popular Sentai Le Resort. Although it's a hotel, its restaurant is also on the cliff, with a great view and open to the public 🔸Phuket Old Town: On the east side of Phuket Island, about a 40min drive from the bustling central area of the three major beaches. But the colorful buildings here are very photogenic, and there are many unique shops. Although it's a bit far, it's worth a visit 🚗Transportation: It is recommended to rent a car for self-driving. Taxis on Phuket Island are expensive and not very convenient, as the attractions are relatively far apart, and some are even on the mountains, making it difficult to hail a cab. I rented a car in advance on 🐬, applied for an international driving permit translation (the little white book), and upon arrival, I simply picked up the car at the airport with the documents, which was very convenient ✨It is recommended to rent for a longer period, as you will stay on the island for many days anyway, and renting a car for the whole trip is cost-effective. The summer promotion offers longer rental periods with more discounts, with a minimum of 40% off 🅿️You can basically park anywhere on the side of the road in Phuket Island, but note: Do not park where there are red and white lines; You can only temporarily park where there are yellow and white lines, and the driver needs to stay in the car 🏠Accommodation If you are not very fond of the hustle and bustle and nightlife, it is not recommended to stay near Patong Beach. It is recommended to choose Karon or Kata Beach, or the quieter Nai Harn Beach. It's quieter there, and the water will be clearer and more beautiful.
