Phuket Waterfalls
Phuket Attractions Guide
It's rare to see a Thai family spend a day out on a west coast beach if the sun is shining, so where do they go? The answer is to Phuket's shadier east coast beaches, the parks and the waterfalls. This is where to really cool off and socialize, Thai-style.
The three best-known waterfalls in Phuket are Bang Pae, Ton Sai and Kathu Waterfall. A lesser-known one is just by Ao Yon Noi Beach, near Cape Panwa.
Bang Pae and Ton Sai waterfalls are located in the Khao Phra Thaeo National Park
in the east of Phuket. The park itself is the last vestige of virgin tropical forest on the island and is home to many exotic animals such as barking deer and various types of monkeys as well as many tropical birds.

Ao Yon Waterfall
The way up to the top of this waterfall is quite difficult because of sharp rocks and you will need to wear good shoes as well as good eyesight to follow it. There are several drop pools – all quite small but big enough to bathe in. The jungle closes in after a while but it's a cool and even romantic spot to visit if you are in that area.
Location: Behind the beach right next to Ao Yon, near Cape Panwa (Ao Yon Noi). To find the waterfall, take the small road at the western end of the beach by the prawn farm and follow it to its end. 100 metres to the right of the parking there is a small path leading up the hill.
