The cuisine in Phuket focuses on seafood and Thai food. Specialties here include: Tom Yum Soup, Pineapple Fried Rice, Thai Water Spinach, Mango Sticky Rice, Fried Rice Noodles, Curry Fried Crab, etc.
In Patong, you can buy your own ingredients at Banzan Market and have them processed by the store, or you can go directly to a seafood restaurant to enjoy the delicious food.
Restaurants in Phuket Town are cheap and authentic, so you might as well order a specialty dish like tom yum soup or green papaya salad when dining.
The price of seafood in the Karon area is more affordable than in Patong, and most restaurants will also provide free salads. Patong Beach has a developed tourism industry, many restaurants, and convenient transportation. It is recommended to stay here during a five-day trip to Phuket.
It is recommended to rent a car and drive yourself when visiting Phuket. The cost for a single day is about 1,000 baht. An international driving license is required. It is recommended to book online in advance and pick up and return the car in Patong.
Those who don’t drive themselves can take a tuk-tuk, which costs about 600 baht from Patong to Phuket Town, and about 600 baht from Phuket Town to Shenxian Peninsula.
Be sure to negotiate the price before getting in the car.
Some tourists also choose to take relatively cheap motorcycle taxis or rent motorcycles for travel, but these two types of transportation are not very safe and are not highly recommended.
