Phromthep Cape, located at the southern tip of Phuket Peninsula, is a popular spot for coastal soaring. The takeoff area is situated just 20 meters from a large wind turbine, making it a unique and scenic launch point. The site is best flown with west, light south, and light northwest winds, which are common from October to May. West winds are particularly prevalent during the off-season, starting around February. Top landing is mandatory here as there are no bottom landing areas—only the sea. This makes it essential for pilots to be confident in their top landing skills before attempting to fly at this location. The site can get busy on Sundays, although most flights are not logged. For those interested in motor-tandem flights, these are possible with light east winds.
