Prachachat Business One source

Flooding and landslides in Patong have receded, with local tourism authorities confirming that operations are returning to normal.

According to a report by Prachachat Business, the flooding and landslides that recently affected the Patong area of Phuket have largely subsided. Sarayuth Mallam, President of the Phuket Tourist Association, stated that the situation is now under control and emphasized that the events have not caused a significant disruption to the broader tourism sector. To ensure the safety and comfort of visitors, the provincial government has collaborated closely with the local hotel association to monitor and assist tourists staying in areas previously identified as high-risk. While the immediate threat has passed, local authorities continue to coordinate efforts to maintain service standards and ensure guest well-being. For travelers currently in or planning to visit Phuket, the situation appears to be stabilizing, though it is advisable to remain updated through local hotel staff or official tourism channels regarding any lingering localized impacts. The association remains committed to providing support to those affected by the recent weather events. Further updates regarding infrastructure recovery or specific area accessibility will be provided by local authorities as they continue their assessments.
