Rehabilitating tracts of the island that were tarnished by tin mining, Phuket Country Club is one of the first golf courses on the island that introduced the fascination of golf to locals. The place is set against a mountainous backdrop, and the amazing vistas surrounding the place makes it one of a kind. The slopes reach into the lagoons which were resulted by tin mining, they were once considered harmful to health, but now you can see groups of swans inhabiting the lagoons. Due to its location, the club is popular among locals from around Patong Beach and Phuket Town; this is one reason why the club sees more local visitors on weekdays than tourists.

The club is located right behind several tourist hotels, and a tourist can walk to the place within a minute or two.

Even if the golf course is flat and not as challenging as other golf courses, one can see that a lot of effort, planning and time have gone into the landscaping of the place.

This is a double golf course that converges with Phuket mountain range. The 36 holes are spread over undulated hillsides, and the bottom tracts are filled by the lagoon. You find many houses on the perimeters which were a measure taken to reclaim the area that was once succumbed to tin mining.

The ground is flat, but the part that runs along the coast is interesting. The place also offers spectacular views of Phang Nga Bay and mountains found in the vicinity.

With a nine-hole course and a driving range, Phukana Golf Club is set within the island's main maintain range; access is possible from Chao Fah Road West. This part of the island was made unsuited to living by coal mining, but a project was brought forward that aimed to rehabilitate the lagoon and benefit from the water hazards rendered by mining, Phukana Golf Club was born out of that initiation. There's a track that crosses over to the mountain from the valley which will be turned it to a real road in the near future; this track makes the place easily accessible to those from around Patong beaches.
