Which beaches in Phuket are not safe for swimming?

Answer 1

Personally I have gone swimming at all of the beaches on the West coast of Phuket. I have not done any swimming of the east coast of Phuket for the simple reason that there aren't any nice beaches there and that the water isn't very clear and a bit muddy often. I don't like to go swimming in that type of water.

Anyway, if you are a solid swimmer then you shouldn't have any problem at any of the Phuket beaches. However during the rainy season the sea does start to get some strong currents and this is basically at all of the West coast beaches of Phuket. So if you have any small children or are not a very good swimmer yourself then I would recommend for you to not go to far into the water.
