Promthep Cape is Phuket's southernmost point and one of the island's most famous sunset spots. From the viewpoint, views extend over the Andaman Sea and offshore islets, with a lighthouse that houses a small free museum. A trail descends to the rocky tip of the cape for an even more open view. In the evening, the place attracts crowds, including buses.

Our local tip

Arrive at least 30 minutes before sunset (around 6pm–6:30pm): crowds and buses arrive early. Free parking; the climb back from the tip is steep, bring water.
