Popular Fishing Locations in Phuket
Phuket is surrounded by the Andaman Sea and contains many archipelagos, along which you can fish while enjoying the crystal clear waters. The most popular fishing spots in Phuket include the following:
- Racha Islands: This is a mini-archipelago of two islands, Noi and Yai, located south of Phuket. Fishing here will be very enjoyable. This is because you can catch not only tuna but also king mackerel and even barracuda. This place is great for trolling and inshore fishing.
- Phi Phi Archipelago: Marine excursions are often booked in this direction for snorkeling and diving. Another activity is spin fishing in Phuket. This way you can catch tuna, grouper, trevally, and other marine life. In addition to the fishing itself, there is aesthetic relaxation: the area has picturesque bays and lagoons, and there are pristine sandy beaches nearby.
- Similan Islands: A fishing excursion to Phuket often includes a visit to this archipelago, consisting of 9 islands. Here you can relax for both one day and several. In the Similans you can catch marlin, large barracuda, and other large inhabitants of the Andaman Sea.
- Cheo Lan Lake: A fishing excursion to Phuket includes not only catching marine life, but also visiting freshwater lakes. In this place you can catch catfish, carp, and alligator gar.
