We love visiting this viewpoint. We always hire motorbikes and take a ride through Kata and up the hill to the viewpoint. There is a nice cafe on the way up the hill on the left that serves cakes...

You cannot beat the view from this viewpoint. I suggest spending at least half an hour to an hour there

Nice viewpoint over Kata Noi, Kata and Karon beaches. It’s not in the best shape but still a nice view. It’s constantly visited by minivans of touristic tours, so you can book it with one of the many touristic agencies if it’s your thing. We rent a motorcycle (200 bahts/day) and we could visit many points according to our schedule. There is a small snack vending and photographer with 2 eagles with whom you can take photos with using the view as background. I recommend the point to visit when you wanna a shadow or have a bird view of the region but not a ‘must’ of the island.

Perfect view point, you can see three beaches. Small place to sit, good and big car park and toilets. I don't like all this animales (like big birds) keeping on the line in full sun all day... Don't give this people any money...

If you have a scooter and you visited Big Buddha, you can drive via Karon Viewpoint to Kata again. You have a gorgeous view over the sea and the beaches here! It is a perfect spot to relax, read a book or eat lunch.

Astonishing views down to Kata and Karon. On a clear day you can the the Big Buddha on the hill too. Look out for the crazy birds in the car park!

One of the nicer viewpoints around Phuket. There was also a hip looking and friendly busker belting out some nice oldies to liven up the atmosphere there. Definitely worth dropping by for a photo op.
