Cape Panwa
Phuket
Probably the best beaches in the Cape
Panwa area are around Yon Bay which is before arriving at Cape
Panwa to the right, its a small road before Vanich Bayfront when
coming from the north, there are several beach hotels, villa cluster and
restaurants.
But around Panwa bay its very quiet, it
needs to have a car or a motorbike to move around, its a rather
remote area at the south eastern end of the island. In the center
of Yon Bay is a pearl farm and usually a couple of sailing boats are
anchored.
It is not possible to cross the creek towards Chalong Bay, it needs
to drive back to Phuket Town and after again to the south towards
Chalong, Rawai and the Karon Kata Beach area.

The area is very hilly with steep slopes
towards the beach and some hotels are built
right into the slopes. If
someone don't want to walk
up down the whole time its
probably not the best to
stay here. The Cape Panwa
Hotel got a big publicity
boost when Mr. Leonardo Di
Caprio and the movie crew
stayed here when they made a
movie "The Beach". This is
also the home of the Phuket
Aquarium and a few km before
the end of the road is
Phuket deep sea port.
In the pics at center left in the back
is Chalong Bay.
