To ensure that these amazing animals are extremely safe and well cared for, the staff and skilled trainers strive to ensure the dolphins live under the same conditions constantly so they will be less susceptible to infections and other complications. This includes a life support system of controlled temperature, salinity, water purification, and food standards. Only fresh, high-quality food is given to the dolphins and seals at all times.

Golden Reflections

The best place to admire the sunrise, many would say, might be toes in the sand or on the rocks, on a beach. Phuket’s position on the western side of Thailand promises spectacular beach sunrises over the ocean from various beaches and viewpoints on the eastern side of Phuket, spoiling everyone rotten! The beauty of Phuket’s beach sunrises is enhanced by the vibrant colors of the sun rays reflecting off the clear and blue shades of the water. The moments are illuminated as the ocean and sky flaunt their reunion with tones of gold, orange, and pink resulting in a stunning visual spectacle. There are many other places and viewpoints where you will witness amazing sunrises in Phuket.

Best Spots to Witness the Sunrise in Phuket

There are some ideal places in Phuket to say hello to the sun! Let’s break it down for you – with some examples – but not limited to!

Sunrise Phuket mountain view.

Public Beaches

Sooo many beaches to choose from, so you don’t have to go very far to enjoy the sunrise on the beach, at sea level, grounded by nature with the sand in your toes. A beach worth making the journey to for a glorious sunrise is Naithon Beach, on the northwest coast of Phuket. Naithon Beach is a long beach and is not overcrowded. So, find the perfect position on Naithon Beach and bask in the glory. Perhaps you have taken a boat trip to explore the small islands, Koh, on the Andaman Sea, off Phuket – then you will feel even closer to a paradise beach sunrise. If you are in the Phang Nga Bay area, Samet Nangshe Viewpoint is a must for infinite views of the Bay, including Koh Tapu, James Bond Island. The sunrise experience brings an extra sparkle to this renowned area.

Private Beaches

If you are staying at a hotel or resort on the beach, you have the best of both worlds with the sun’s morning performance on your doorstep.

Viewpoints – and Other Top Spots

A viewpoint offers the perfect standpoint and perspective not just of a great view but also for special occasions such as a must watch sunrise. Most viewpoints have parking, with a possible walk up a path, hill, or stairs to reach the vantage point – with a killer view.

Promthep Cape

Probably one of the most photographed locations on the island is Promthep Cape and for good reason! Situated on the southern tip of Phuket, Promthep Cape boasts an incredible expanse of 180° views. Promthep Cape is also the location of the ‘Golden Jubilee Lighthouse,’ Laem Phromthep Kanchanaphisek Lighthouse – a tribute to King Bhumibol Adulyadej. A visit would be fitting to mark your appreciation for the the beloved late King of Thailand and the sunrise!

Sunrise Phuket Island

Big Buddha Statue

Another exceptionally popular and busy place of interest – Big Buddha and the lookout points – atop Nakkerd Hill. This great Buddha mountain is surrounded by views, offering 360° vistas across many areas of Phuket, including Phuket Town, Chalong Bay, Kata, and Karon – so you can imagine the panoramic sunrise! You may need to wait a moment for the perfect picture. There is no entrance fee to the Big Buddha statue, but ensure your shoulders and knees are covered, out of respect, as it is an active local temple.

Khao Rang Hill

The viewpoint in Phuket Town that does not disappoint! Enjoy sunrise over the city with relaxing views of the hustle and bustle coming to life. The views from here at sunset, along with the lights across the city, are worthy of a return visit.

Monkey Hill

Share the sunrise from this observation platform with the cute monkeys that roam this forested hilltop. Located on Toh Sae Hill, beyond the old part of town. While monkeys steal the show, the views amid the natural surrounding of Koh Sirey and the east coast are a bonus, especially in the cool of the day, at sunrise.

Cape Panwa

Ensonsed at the southern most tip of Phuket, south of Phuket Town, on the east coast, and hence, probably one of the most secluded areas of the island, lies Cape Panwa. A peaceful and beautiful setting with wonderful seascape views, making sunrise a real treat.
