Chalong Phuket Nightlife

Chalong Bay is the main public marina in Phuket,

if you come in with a ship - boat from outside Thailand you better come in here. The formalities are done quickly and a safe anchor is for sure.

They extended the pier far into the water to make sure there is no problem for anyone to come in. Beside the pier a couple of good restaurants, small hotels, supply shops, travel agents, dive supply and transport facilities offer their services.

Nearby in a place like Fisherman Way you can rent or buy houses for short or long term and to Patong Beach and Phuket Town it’s only 10 minutes with the car.

In general, your hard earned money has about 3 times the value in comparison to Europe, USA etc. As a example, a tasteful Tom Yam Seafood (seafood soup) with rice and a Coke you get everywhere for under 3 EURO.

If you are sick of the laser guns at every road and all this everyday problems at home , all this ... you are not allowed to do this and that, the lousy weather, unpleasant people, exorbitant taxes, the doorman at the restaurant and the disco-- emigrate to Thailand, it’s easy going and you feel like to be in paradise.

The government has understood this and is offering special long term retirement visa -no taxes-.

You can easily find a great woman, also when you are maybe already a little old or maybe handicapped. Rent or buy a suitable house and have a good time.

It’s also quite easy to get domestic staff if someone is handicapped. A pretty house with two bedrooms, baths, living rooms, garden etc. not far from the sea (maybe 30 - 50 Meter) in a orderly private compound with security, swimming pool and so on comes to approximately 500 - 1000 EURO per month.

For 100 to 200 thousand EURO you get a spacious villa near the beach with everything you want. They have special constructions for ownership of land since officially a foreigner can’t own land.

Also leasing of land for e.g. 30 years with a option for another 30 year is a common possibility and .. almost for sure within this timeframe they probably will relax the foreign ownership of land anyway. Have a look at www.fishermanwayphuket.com - a waterfront estate - to get a idea
