A very short 10-minute drive from Phuket Town, Cape Panwa is a lesser-known area where rubber and palm plantations still outnumber the resorts, and where Phuket's deep sea port and naval base are found. The roads are quiet, offering the chance to take in the sea views and other sights as you wind around the cape. A major attraction is the Phuket Aquarium at the Phuket Marine Biological Centre.
The Phuket Yacht Club organises regular sailing and family-oriented activities at Ao Yon beach on the west side of the cape, where mooring can also be arranged. Outside of the resorts, dining options are limited to informal Thai and seafood restaurants serving fresh local fare. For accommodation, the area has some beautiful resorts ( see Novotel Panwa Beach Resort ) and luxury home developments offering peaceful seaview retreats, as well as a few small bungalow operations.
