The best gay bars in Phuket are a big part of what makes Thailand among the most welcoming holiday spots in the world for gay travellers. When it comes to nightlife, the Paradise Complex in Patong is the top spot.
Connected to the Royal Paradise Hotel & Spa, the complex consists of a couple of streets of gay-centric guesthouses, restaurants, shops, clubs and bars. Among the places listed below, you'll find host bars (similar to beer bars or hostess bars, but with one very obvious difference), go-go bars (featuring male dancers, often with a ladyboy cabaret show, too) and clubs (just like a standard nightclub, but attracting a gay crowd).

Boat Bar
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
The Boat Bar has been the cornerstone of the gay community in Phuket for decades, staying fresh and exciting with occasional refurbishments. It features a professional twice-nightly cabaret show as well as a live DJ who keeps the dance floor busy with cool and funky sounds. The quality of the club is so high that it attracts men and women, straight and gay – particularly younger, sophisticated international visitors.

My Way
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
One of the oldest establishments in the Paradise Complex, My Way brought the cabaret entertainment of Bangkok’s gay scene to Phuket with 3 great shows every night. It's also a high-quality go-go bar. The outside terrace is a good place to enjoy a few drinks and cool down between shows, as well as helping to make it one of the more popular venues in the area, attracting a mixed crowd.

Passport Pub
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
Quite a modest little gay lounge bar right by the entrance to the Paradise Complex, Passport Pub’s frontage gives it the look of a lost jungle temple. Inside, you'll find a couple of small stages. Despite its small size and simplicity, its discreet design and friendly service make it an established favourite.

Zag Club
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
The most dramatic and fun of the gay go-go bars in Phuket, ZAG Club features special shows, events and happy hours. It's also a dance club, with great music creating a fun and lively atmosphere. Finally, as with many of the places in the Paradise Complex, it has an outdoor terrace for enjoying a quiet drink and watching the free street cabaret performance.

James Dean and Friends
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
A modest host bar located near to the entrance of Paradise Complex, James Dean and Friends is noted for its very friendly hosts. They attract a mixed crowd, making it a fun and lively place, in spite of being one of the smallest venues on the street. It offers a good view of the street entertainments of the larger venues further down the road and, while it doesn’t supply similar shows itself, it justly deserves its place among the list of the best gay bars in Phuket for its unique atmosphere, built over the many years of its existence.

Sundowners Guesthouse
- อาหาร
- ไนท์ไลฟ์
Sundowners is a large complex consisting of a guesthouse and bistro on one side of the road and a 2-storey bar on the other. The street-level bar is a lot like the terrace bars of the major clubs it's surrounded by, but with the added bonus of a pool table and an air-conditioned internet café. The upper floor also has a terrace – making it a great people-watching perch – and has flat-screen TVs on which you can enjoy the latest live sporting action in air-conditioned comfort. Sundowners has an especially impressive drinks menu, featuring exotic cocktails, local and imported wines, champagne, bottled and draught beer and fresh fruit shakes. Top-quality bar snacks are available via the bistro.
