Are you obsessed with coffee? If not, then there may be something wrong with you (we joke of course), or maybe you just haven’t tried enough quality coffee yet. So, hold onto your horses because we want to take you through a few spots that we know serve up some of the best coffee nearby Chalong.
Chalong is a place right in the epicentre of Phuket, the hub of most things that go on here on this wild little tropical island. The iconic Big Buddha statue perched at the jungle hilltop, austerely overlooking the urban valley and bay of this town.
Gazzillions of tourist boats (this is a real statistic, obviously) come in out out of the nearby pier throughout the day. Tourists embark on island tours, scuba diving trips and if they’re like me, signing up to spend a day hanging over the side of the boat with no mild form seasickness. (I’m no pharmacist but if you are planning a boat day then those anti-sickness medications are available and are sure to turn your frown upside down!)
Chalong also has a rich variety of restaurants and eateries to supply the ever increasing population choosing to come and live in this beautiful place. I bet the locals 30 years ago never expected the amount of ‘Farangs’ that they now see on a regular basis in Chalong! This is probably why so many business owners have jumped at the chance to open up shop, which is WHY there is competition for the best quality coffee nearby Chalong. It’s not a bad thing to have too much of though!
You might be a bit of a whacky one who feels ready to take a morning stroll up to the Big Buddha (count me out, I’ll be getting my beauty sleep) or you may be about to get on a boat and sail off into the stunning seas. Whatever your plan for the day, you’ll be needing a great cup of coffee to start your day off well.
