Chalong Phuket is a quiet and peaceful location free of tourist trappings. But the is a wide variety of activities to be found; Elephant rides, horse riding, safari's, rock climbing, snake shows, gun shooting, the zoo, etc.. But most of all, Chalong is where most of the boats set off for sunset dinner cruises, trips to other islands, diving, snorkeling or deep sea fishing.
From the PBH, it's a 25 minute drive to Patong, the largest most boisterous tourist beach with a bit too much of everything. 15 minutes to Karon, a popular Scandinavian area with a wide plush sandy beach and clear blue water. 10 minutes to Kata which is a small quaint beach area hosting club med and Kata Noi which is a small coral reef beach. Also in within this 10 minute drive is Nai Harn, a nice lesser known, but beautiful beach.
