It's a multiple choice question so you can choose multiple beaches but please explain in few short words why you favor your choices.

 

It's nice to see how and why people rate their fav. beaches and their rating criteria.

 

we can all learn from one another.

Paradise beach, a short trip from central patong and a million miles away, Its surprising how many dont know about it.

Its well worth the 100 baht entry, a deck chair, food and drink service to your chair. Picture postcard beach with white sand, clean water, some snorkeling. Cute russian girls doing the holiday photoshoot.

Whats not to like

Though last time they seem to be adding more and more eateries that spoiled the feel a bit.

Afraid you might gain 1/2 a kilo?

 

that could effect your IQ

 

ps - Crazy is a type of fun and daring..

No. I'll stick to my lettuce leaves.

Actually the name was a spur of the moment thing. Not obsessed about weight. If you saw the chocolate I eat. 

I went to Laem Sing around 2004, where you can only access it by walking down a hill, and it was a beautiful looking but smallish beach. One by one they added food stalls and seats which kind of crowded it out a bit.

Phuket was ok in the early 80s but even then not great... there are much better beaches elsewhere.

I don't really like Phuket. I went there only once in about 2013 and hated the place. I'll never go back, despite the beaches.

So the last time you were there was 8 years ago. its changed so much since then. Theres tons more plastic and rubbish.

Well, to be honest I must say that Patong Beach is very clean every day. 

 

According to the wheels marks on the sand, they must be using some kind of cleaning machines daily.

Don't know why there would only be 10 listed. 
Here are the west side beaches listed (except for Mai Khao, which I have yet to measure because of the checkpoint up there, getting back)  

List of Phuket’s beaches

1. Amanpuri Beach 440 meters long
2. Anantara Beach 330 meters long

3. Ao Sane Beach 129 meters long
4. Banana Beach 170 meters long
5. Freedom Beach 285 meters long
6. Hyatt Regency Beaches: Smaller West Beach: 84 meters. Larger East beach: 435 meters
7. Jungle Beach 47 meters long

8. Kalim beach 320 meters long
9. Kamala beach 2.1 kms
10. Karon Beach 3.7 kms

11. Kata beach Length: 1.21 kms
12. KataNoi Beach Length 0.75 kms
13. Laem Sing Beach 340 meters long
14. Layan/Mai Khao beach-5.5 kms
15. JW Marriott’s Merlin Beach 310 meters
16. Meridian Beach 330 meters long
17. Nai Harn Beach 700 meters long
18. NaiYang Beach 3.4 kms
19. NaiThon Beach 1.06 kms
20. Naka Beach 230 meters long
21. Paradise beach distance: 100 meters, Small beach to the south: 43 meter
22. Patong Beach: 2.82 kms
23. Surin Beach 890 meters long
24. Tavorn Beach 542 meters long
25. Tri Trang Beach 780 meters long
26. Trisara Beach 266 meters long
27. White Sand Beach 299 meters long

 

My favorite?   Probably either White Sand (because it's usually empty)  or Nai Harn (it's been nicknamed "porn star beach" by some since the girls have seemed to move there from Patong's ghost town.  (and the fashion trend this year seems to be "skin")  

For artistic style:  Nui Beach.   

Only one of these made the OP's list so I have to assume they're the ones he goes to.

An army of local workers then a truck comes along and collects the piles of rubbish. Watched it in May.
