florence11 Posted March 13, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hi A group of us are cruising in Jan in the far east, I have been doing some research on line about where the ships dock in Phuket. The site I found states "There isn't one specific place that cruise ships dock. Some of the cruise ships dock near Patong Beach, other cruise ships dock in Phuket City and others dock in the Port of Phuket. Verify with your cruise line in advanceas to where you will be docking since each cruise line uses various locations in Phuket for docking purposes". Has any one docked in Phuket as we were hoping to go to a beach near Patong and was wondering how far away that wound be. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

black forest Posted March 26, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Thank you for the link to your video! I copied it into a German forum - I hope you don't mind! Very nice video. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilybob Posted April 21, 2013 #8 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Though you most likely will tender to Patong Beach, we were just on Legend of the Seas and weather conditions required us to tender from Makham Bay (deep sea port) on SE coast instead of Patong Bay. This delayed our arrival about two hours as the wind allowed for tendering only from one side of the ship. If you are doing something on your own the operators will be aware of this but just something to keep in mind from a time perspective. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted April 21, 2013 #9 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Post on the board of your cruise line to see if they docked or tendered the last time they were there. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
