Moving to Phuket permanently in 6 weeks. Will be between Rawaii and Chalong.

Mad keen swimmer.

Is there a club for likeminded on Phuket?

Or a decent 25 meter or 50 meter pool in the south somewhere?

Thanks in advance

I know of a pool in Chalong, just inside the "Phuket Country Homes" housing estate, on the Cho far Road going into phuket town (not the temple road) - although i havent been there so i couldnt tell you what size it is.

I'm not aware of a swimming club, but that doesnt mean there isnt one, just that i dont know of it they might be able to help you at the pool with that one.

Otherwise its a case of sneaking into a hotel and using their pool... or just jump in the sea.

Good luck for when you get here and welcome to Phuket

Your right Wolfie, there is one in Phuket Country Club, its 25 meters and has a family club type feel and great food - cheap!

Yes the Gent is right, it is a really nice pool and place, great grub and a good feel about it.

In fact we should go there Gent when I get back from the jungle, the grub in there is soooo much better than this mess tin muck.

All the best and an anti malarial jab
