    A stunning view of the island! You can see the Buddha on the hill which must be three or four miles away. You can also see the other side of the island and the water Beyond. I 100% recommend it. There is a restaurant here and a cafe so make a nice time of it. Very very beautiful.

    This is a free activity you should do if you are nearby it has a beautiful view point and cool signs to take pictures of and also has lots of monkeys there so be careful and be nice. Parking lot is available food is available, snacks for monkeys is available & a cute cafe spot is available you can see the information on the schedule on the pictures below! Recommend to go before sunset or on sunrise but anytime works also since it’s open 24/7!

    You can walk there and it doesnt take too long. For the time I actually spent enjoyed the view, taking a scooter is the better option. It is a plateau in the sun. That’s why you wont stay there too long. It is simply too hot to do it.

    At the top there are also restaurant, restrooms and souvenir shops.

    Beautiful place to chill out and relax. We went at 9am to catch the guy feeding the monkeys. We even spotted a wild boar. We have been to both restaurants there, once for lunch and the other time for dinner, both highly recommended. There is a small shop where you can pick up snacks and a toilet is next door (10 baht). The viewpoint has sweeping views of Phuket Town, Chalong Bay and the Panwa Peninsula. A must visit if you are in the area.
