mrandmrsdd Posted November 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Hi, we will stop in Phuket in March, it will be tender port. We do not have privileged tender so How long could it take to get ashore, I am figuring 2 hours, is that enough what is around the tender area, can we walk to the temple and or old town. Do local take us $ or do I need Thai currency thank you. Diane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallasm Posted November 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2018 (edited) Tender is to Patong Beach - it’s 10 miles from Phuket City. I think you’ll need bath - US$ is not widely accepted. Edited November 11, 2018 by hallasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mom says Posted November 12, 2018 #3 Share Posted November 12, 2018 As previously stated, the usual anchorage is off of Patong beach, at a temporary jetty (they take it down for the monsoon season) which may or may not show up on Google Maps or Google Earth. You will need Thai baht for spending money. According to the TripAdvisor forums, it's easy to find both ATMs and Currency Exchange kiosks within a block or so on the beach front road. As for transportation into Phuket and independent sight seeing, I'd check out the TripAdvisor forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
