Nakkerd Viewpoint

Great views

Views to the south of Phuket

What we say: 3.5 stars

A lesser known beauty spot in this part of Phuket is the very underrated Nakkerd Viewpoint, off Chaofa Road near Chalong, which boasts spectacular views across southern Phuket.

The 45-metre marble Buddha that sits atop here is visible from nearly anywhere in southern Phuket and is definitely worth a visit. A visitor centre includes pictures and captions detailing the construction of the Buddha — mostly in Thai.

You don’t need words though to describe the incredible 360-degree view from the top. Take in either the eastern or western views from the handful of cafes below the peak.
