With still fresh air in the morning and a breeze blowing gently was a great day for those like to golf. Golfing in Phuket is very easy with many different golf courses, two most popular are located in Kathu. Loch Palm and Red Mountain there are next each other and belong to same owner but with very different characteristics.

The Loch Palm more easy and relaxing while Red Mountains a bit more challenging.

Weather will stay as now for at least few days, it will depends how strong the Hurricane on Taiwan will get and if it will move down to South China Sea, sending some wind and may be some rain here or move north leaving Phuket untouched.

If like to golf Phuket offers many courses from easier to more challenging, the Red Mountains Golf course is in Kathu. It is called Red Mountain as built inside one of the many former Tin Mines of Phuket, a great scenario.

On West Coats still on the red flags, swimming from Phuket West coast is dangerous between May and October because of strong rip currents. This are  generated by constant wind and waves during summer season. Can still enjoy stay in shallow water and of course surf the waves being aware to not go to far into open sea.

Kata Beach is most famous place for surfing in Phuket and May and June are best time. Just wait for the correct tide.
