PHUKET: Hundreds, if not thousands, of people returned to the beaches along Phuket’s west coast today (June 9) as the renowned natural attractions became open to visitors again under a provincial order issued over the weekend.

 

Patong Municipality workers removed the ‘Beach Closed’ signs at Patong Beach as Phuket Vice Governor Supoj Rotreuang Na Nongkhai joined Patong Mayor Chalermluck Kebsup and Patong Police Chief Col Aganit Danpitaksat at a public event at 9:30am with dozens of officers walking onto the sand to declare the famous beach open.

 

At the same time, more than 100 tourists and local residents arrived at Nai Harn Beach to enjoy the popular sands at the southern end of the island, as well as at other popular beaches along the west coast.

I call Bull Puckey on their numbers. I counted approximately 30 on Kamala beach, the majority without masks. The mix was probably 50/50 locals and foreigners. 3 cuties frolicking in the surf.

Hundreds of people at Nai Harn, all enjoying the sun and vitamin D.  Too bad the geniuses in charge decided to close the access roads after noon for whatever reason.
