Travel Guide - Attractions Cape in Phuket Thailand
Ka cape
 Ka
cape is a popular stop for Thai travellers to the island.
Located at the extreme southwest of Chalong Bay. South of
the point is Leam Ka Beach, a sandy strip dotted with rocks
and boulders. The extensive coral reefs offshore make for
interesting snorkeling mornings. Bungalows, Thai food, and
boat charters to the islands are available. Ka Cape is 7
kms. west of Chalong Circle.
Phrom Thep Cape
 "Phrom"
is Thai for Hindu "Brahma"signifying purity, as
"Thep" means 'God'. Phromthep is a headland stretching
into the sea and forming the extreme south-end of Phuket.
It has been prominent feature for mariners since of early
seafarers from the sub-continent, remains of whose journey's
have been found all along the Malay-peninsula's west coast.
The cape has tall cliffs on the south, and was formerly
called by local villagers "Leam Jao" (The Gods'
Cape). From the cliffs running down to the boulders at the
sea is a line of palm trees. Emerald green currents swirl
in the deep water and breakers hurl themselves in vain against
the rocky point : it is one of Phuket 's most inspiring
vistas. From Promthep Cape, which is the most beautiful
place to catch Phuket's famous sunset, a road leads northwest
to Nai Han Beach.
