Location:
Banyan Cove Residence is located at the southern tip of Phuket, on the west coast of Cape Panwa approx. 45 minutes from Phuket Airport, and 15 minutes from Phuket Town . Phuket's many leisure activities are accessible from Cape Panwa by car within 15 to 30 minutes.

Cape Panwa Overview
This southern corner of the island is made up of a high ridge that slopes down to the sea on both sides, giving almost every location an ocean view. There is limited local entertainment making it quiet, picturesque and not very touristy. The Cape is more protected than the west coast of the island with fewer beaches but there are several small stretches of sand that are especially pretty, and almost private.

Cape Panwa offers an entirely different atmosphere that many visitors simply love. The drive from Phuket Town says a lot, for the road with little traffic, winds around hills and through coconut and rubber plantations. Through the coconut gardens views of the ocean can be seen.

Once on the shore line panoramic views of an ocean that, on a clear day, thrusts back a vivid blue backdrop broken by the humpback outlines of distant islands and on an exceptionally clear day the more rugged forms of the Phi Phi islands are visible. Khao Khat and Ao Yon Bay (oyster cove) are two particularly scenic areas on the cape.

It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to drive to Chalong and Rawai bays where excellent seafood restaurants and bars sit overlooking the beach. Patong, Kata or Karon, are a further 20 minutes drive but, if you are a family group and want a quiet and beautiful get-away, this green corner of the island will probably be ideal.

Ao Makham Deep Sea Port is located on the east side of the cape and is the gateway to Maiton and Phi Phi islands which can be visited as a day trip outing or longer.

Nearby Off-shore islands

Koh Lon Island (Long Island)
This large, mountainous island is only 20 minutes by regular passenger boat from Chalong Bay. The mainly Muslim inhabitants engage in fishing, rubber and coconut planting. There is a long stretch of beach on the northeast coast.

Coral Island or Hey Island
This island off Phuket's south coast is so well known for its coral reef that it is often referred to simply as Coral Island. In addition to the splendid reefs there are two fine beaches on the north and west. Boats leave from Rawai and Chalong.

Maiton Island
This tiny island off Phuket's southeast coast is highly prized for its still perfect natural environment, including fine white beaches and crystal waters; ideal for swimming, diving, or fishing. Day-time excursion boats leave from Ao Makham Deep Sea Port.
