A Phuket day pass at Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort starts this varied day on the island. After enjoying the resort, Dave and family stop at a local food spot between Kata and Karon, across from the Karon Post Office, then finish at the famous Big Buddha Temple.
Day Pass at Le Meridien
The day begins at Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort for its day pass offering. Le Meridien is one of Phuket's established beachfront resorts, set on a private cove between Patong and Karon, and day passes let non guests enjoy the pools and beach facilities. During the quiet Sandbox period, offers like this were an especially good way to experience a top resort.
A Local Food Stop
Between resort time and sightseeing, the family stops at a local food spot between Kata Beach and Karon Beach, across from the Karon Post Office. Local eateries along this stretch of the coast road serve Thai favorites at local prices, a useful contrast to resort dining and a reminder that great cheap food is never far away in Phuket.
Ending at the Big Buddha
The day finishes at the Big Buddha Temple, Phuket's most famous landmark. The 45 meter statue on the Nakkerd Hills offers sweeping views over the island's south, and it pairs naturally with a beach day in the Kata and Karon area. It is a fitting finale for a classic Phuket itinerary.
