Promthep Cape seems to be an irresistible spot for a good old sunset photo at the very south of Phuket island, not far from Nai Harn Beach on the way to and Rawai. This landmark has always been a daily meeting point for hundreds of tourists, mostly Thai, to line up with a camera, facing west. Colourful buses download hordes of tourists hungry for a sunset picture and the place starts buzzing with flashes. It’s also funny to see how many people still take sunset photos with a flash!
With its elevated location and few small islands nearby, the Promthep Cape is indeed a nice place to admire the sunset, but it is not always impressive. Watching the crowd is almost more entertaining: most people are texting or playing Facebook games while waiting for the six o’clock moment.
If you feel courageous, and not many visitors seem to be, walk down to the end of the cape. It is relatively easy to go there, but without training, on the way back, you might wonder why did you have to inflict this to yourself.
Apart from the cape itself and the iconic palm trees you always see on the photos, there is not much to do in the vicinity. The Lighthouse, which is also a mini-museum, doesn’t display much to look at and even from the rooftop doesn’t offer any particular view.
The shrine surrounded by hundreds of elephants statues and carvings in all sizes and colours maybe be more interesting than the museum. As you walk around, you can’t miss it.
