Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Located in the Pakhlok area of ​​the Thalang district in northern Phuket, NEO Phuket – commonly known as Ao Por Viewpoint – offers breathtaking panoramic views of Ao Por Bay, the surrounding islands, and the Andaman Sea. Away from the bustling tourist centers of southern Phuket, it boasts a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere, appealing to travelers seeking scenic beauty away from the crowds.

Visitors can expect an elevated viewpoint with unobstructed views across the bay, making it particularly worthwhile for photography enthusiasts and anyone wanting a more comprehensive impression of Phuket's coastline and landscape. The viewpoint attracts locals and tourists alike, and the relatively low number of visitors compared to Phuket's main attractions contributes to a relaxed atmosphere. The surrounding area reflects the greener, less developed character of Phuket's north.

The viewpoint is open 24/7 and can theoretically be visited at any time, but sunrise and late afternoon generally offer the best photo opportunities. The address leads to a GPS-friendly location in Pakhlok. Travelers are advised to use a navigation app such as Google Maps, as the roads in this part of the Thalang district can be narrow and sometimes poorly signposted. Sturdy footwear is recommended when exploring the main viewing area. As there is currently no website available, it is advisable to use offline maps as a precaution.
