Karon is one of the main beach areas on Phuket, with a long, sandy bay, hotels and restaurants along the beach road, and evening markets close to the sand. The bay is lined with restaurants and shops, and the sand is the main draw for a stay here. Phunawa Resort Phuket Karon Beach is a short walk from the water, with Karon Beach 450 m away, so the sand is an easy stroll for a morning swim or an evening walk.

Karon View Point, a lookout 300 m from the resort, gives views over Karon, and the Golden Fisherman monument stands 550 m away. Wat Chalong, Phuket's most revered Buddhist temple, is 4.6 km away, and Big Buddha Phuket, a white statue on a hilltop with wide views, is also reached by road. Phuket International Airport is 28.3 km away, and the rest of the island is reached by road.

A day could start at Karon View Point, continue on Karon Beach with a swim, and end at the Karon Night Market, which fills with evening stalls and local food. A morning at Wat Chalong followed by Big Buddha Phuket in the afternoon covers two of the island's best-known sights.
