There are plenty of Night Markets in Phuket and all of them are amazing. You can stroll down these shopping havens, get some great street food, and also try your luck at meeting women. These Phuket Night Markets are super happening zones. You'll find all sorts of things to do and if you're really lucky, you'll be having the time of your life. Let's take a look at some of the best Phuket Night Markets around.
Why Men Should Explore Phuket Night Markets?
The nightlife scene in Phuket is not as wild as it is in Pattaya but it can surely drain you out. The humidity is quite high too. If you are in the mood to avoid the crazy music playing in GoGo Bars, then go check out the Night Markets in Phuket. Grab a drink if you are famished and check out the local talent. There are plenty of young university girls that hang out here and want to meet new people. You won't find them working girls here like how they hang out at GoGo Bars. These are mostly Sideline Thailand girls. But the girls here are locals and they just want to have a good time. They won't be interested in your money either. Pick up a few Thai Phrases that you can learn and strike up a conversation. These college girls are generally educated and speak English too.

4. Malin Plaza
This is a fairly new and unknown night market that is located at the end of Patong Beach on the southern side. It is known for its great food. Unlike other night markets, the USP of Malin Plaza is its food. People often don't eat food at shopping malls and come here because it's that good. Malin is open every day between 2 PM and 12 AM. Walk southwards on Patong Beach to find it.
