Plane Spotting in Phuket has become a viral phenomenon the day it became forbidden. The more it’s forbidden, the more people go there, and this once deserted beach had become an Instagram mad playground. And why not? Seeing these enormous flying machines approaching from far and getting closer to you in a roar is jaw-dropping.

Black Rock is not as hard to reach as Samet Nangshee listed higher in this page, but it still requires a little bit of climbing. It’s not too difficult to find as the path is not well defined as you can see on our page. The view from up there is fantastic, offering a superb birdview of Nai Harn Beach and the islands around

James Bond island is one of those bucket list items many people want to tick-off their list when in Phuket. There are many positive and negative opinions about James Bond Island, and most are justified.
