Visitors of the Phuket Sandbox program give some controversial informations in Social Media about restaurants and shops in different areas of Phuket. Some find themselves in "dead" areas, where many restaurants and shops are closed. For the moment, we can distill out this:
Ban Tao and Laguna are lively areas
Thalang road in Phuket old town is recommended
In Rawai you find good seafood restaurants
In Patong it's more difficult to find restaurants and the entertainment shops are closed due to the pandemic restrictions. Nanai road is the livelier part of Patong.
Restaurants are allowed to sell alcohol until 9pm only. Also dining in closes at 9pm.
Due to on a low level rising Covid-19 infections in Phuket Provincial Communicable Disease Committee has decided to close down the island’s Central Festival and Central Floresta malls, the provincial sports stadium, soccer fields and futsal courts until August 2nd, as a precautionary step. All schools and other educational institutes are now closed until August 16th, while social distancing is being enforced in night and fresh markets, with the number of visitors limited to four square metres per person, until further notice.
According to the provincial health chief, new infections are expected to stabilize at about 20 cases a day for the next two weeks, because there remain many high-risk cases in quarantine pending test results. He attributed the increased infections to the arrival of more people on the resort island to seek jobs and more tourists, adding that the infection surge will not pose an obstacle to the continuation of the Phuket “sandbox” scheme, reports Thai PBS.
Be aware, that this time of the year is Monsoon time. Therefore the sea on the West coast is more moved that at beaches on the East coast.
