Having recently come back from a wondrous vacation in Phuket, I now feel qualified to give advice on certain aspects of a trip there!

Phuket nightlife is bustling and lively. There are plenty of bars, clubs and restaurants and it is unlikely that one could get bored looking for a new thing to do in the evening. The variety of places that are open is unbelievable when I think back to the sleepy island I encountered when I last visited around 10 years ago. Having said that, Phuket nightlife is very much more sedate when compared to what can be found in Bangkok or other places.

The bars and clubs around the island range from traditional Thai-style clubs with local bands entertaining locals and vacationers alike, to Western-style super clubs catering for the hardcore clubbers. In the middle are numerous tourist clubs that play the latest in chart dance hits and provide a cheap source of booze. If you’re looking for a night that you probably won’t remember then this is the place to go! The variety means that, if nothing else, Phuket nightlife is never boring.

So, in summary: Phuket nightlife is good, but it has still got some way to go before it can match Bali or Singapore.
