Promthep Cape
Phuket’s most iconic sunset viewpoint
Promthep Cape is one of Phuket’s most iconic landmarks and a must-visit destination for sunset lovers. Located at the island’s southernmost tip, the cape juts dramatically into the Andaman Sea, offering panoramic ocean views and breathtaking sunsets that paint the sky in shades of gold, orange, and crimson.
The area is popular in the late afternoon, when visitors gather to witness the day’s last light. Apart from the main viewpoint, Promthep Cape is also home to the Kanchanaphisek Lighthouse, which houses a maritime museum and serves as a secondary viewing point. Adventurous guests may also take a walk down the rocky path toward the cape’s tip for a closer view of the coastline.
Located about 45 minutes by car from Mercure Phuket Patong Journeyhub, Promthep Cape is the perfect afternoon trip to end your day with a truly memorable sunset.
