Is Phuket safe for women?

I felt very safe in Ohuket. I’ve lived there for half a year, and never experienced any unsafe moments. I liked walking alone at night, especially in busier areas. Never did I have the feeling that someone would rob me. Also, people never catch called or anything.

So peaceful and beautiful. Can find activities on Klook and other travel websites for trustworthy options. Grab and Bolt is relatively easy to use to hail rides (I don’t recommend hailing one of the street). If you have a friend travelling with you for the first time it’s better, or if you know the ins and outs and the travel hacks then easier to stay safe and get around. You can try zip lining, ATV, archery, jet skiing, other water sports. I also recommend taking a day trip around the islands like Ko Phi Phi.

Seriously a safe and amazing island to explore all sorts of lifestyles from beachy and relaxed to fancy and dressed up. Safe for a woman because it is guys who have to worry about being chased by lady boys most of the times
