The Kata area
One great place to explore when you visit Phuket is the region of Kata. It’s home to a stunning beach lined with palm trees that sway in the gentle warm wind – the perfect place to relax and unwind with clear, calm water safe for swimming. It’s also popular with surfers during the months between May and October, while between November and April people come to enjoy the serenity and sun.
It also has all the great dining and nightlife options one could dream of, without being too loud or intrusive. Away from the beach, you can enjoy the centre of town, with all the shops and conveniences you need to enhance your stay.
Then there are the stunning accommodation options. The Avista Phuket Resort and Spa, Kata Beach, can make all your Phuket holiday dreams come true.
