For Night time entertainment the Beer Bars in Patong Beach are the most numerous and visited spots.

Within a 500m radius around Bangla Rd there are over 150 Beer Bars. The bars are nothing more than benches with roofs over there heads, most no larger than 3 square meters and butted right on next to each other. The bars are filled with lovely little Thai girls calling out for your attention and affection (said with tongue in cheek) and of course your tourist dollar.

Seriously thought, there is a lot of action going on, in & around these bars and for the first time tourist a wealth of vivid light, sounds, smells, color and beautiful girls.  The atmosphere is easy and relaxed as you sit in one of the many bars and take in the show around you. In season Phuket is awash with people from many different countries and Patong Beach in particular becomes a very cosmepolitien place. People who finish a days diving, sunbathing, sightseeing or other activities usually congregate in these places to meet and party on in to the evening.

There is a wide variety of bar sports to play with any of your new found friends. Games such as bang the nail into the lump of tree stump are popular. Connect Four, Backgamon or the Thai version of Ka Plunk are also in vogue. Some of the slightly larger bars have pool tables and dart boards and this becomes an affordable nightly ritual for most people. You have something to eat in one of the many restaurants and then settle for a few beers before retiring, keeping in mind that there is always many options for those who want to party on throught the night.
