Nightlife in Phuket, Thailand

Teaching in Phuket, Thailand pays around 1000 Baht per day. You wont get rich on this, but it's enough to enjoy Phuket and experience what it has to offer. Apart from the beautiful nature and lovely beaches, there is also a vibrant nightlife in Phuket.

Patong is probably the main tourist area of Phuket, Thailand. Some say that Patong is close to becoming a clone of one of the notorious entertainments sois of Bangkok. Others predicted it could be the next Pattaya. Of course all of these were conjectures, but today, even after the tsunami, those who predicted could be called "prophets," - in their own right.


Patong not only became like one of the red-light sois of Bangkok, but many tell that is has far surpassed Pattaya. Currently the hub of Phuket's night entertainment, the whole strip remains alive, even long after the sun goes down.

Presently, there are more or less 200:

• bars
• massage shops
• pubs
• go-go bars
• disco houses
• and other nightspots in Patong.

Most of Patong's go-go action is concentrated on Soi Bangla road.


Bars are probably the most popular night destinations for many. Most of Patong's bars are small, with humble stools or niches as seats. Music is often loud, even cacophonous because of unfiltered sounds from next-door bars. But siitting in one of these bars can be fun. They are along the road so people-watching is the name of the game.

Teaching in Phuket, Thailand is never boring. Always something to do and lots of entertainment.
