Short of a railway or other mass transit system, Phuket’s infrastructure includes the scenic north-south route linking the popular west coast beaches like Nai Yang, Nai Ton, Surin, Kamala, Patong, Karon up to Kata. The road rounds off the southern tip at Laem Promthep, viewpoint of the famous Phuket Sunset, meanders past fishing villages in Rawai before moving north again along the east/central part of the island.

From Rawai, the road connects Chalong Bay where it branches off in four directions! One of which will take you to Wat Chalong, the historic Buddhist temple, another straight on to the Town Center.
