The scorecard

Catch in six lines

Top marks for a polished pool day and a long sunset, and one of the pricier beach clubs in Phuket.

The setting
a pool on Bang Tao Beach, with sunbeds, salas, cabanas and DJ daybeds facing the sea.
The spend
a set spend per bed, all spendable on food and drinks.
The day
a day pass from 11am to 6pm, DJ daybeds to 8pm, then sunset and dinner.
The food
lunch and dinner from noon to 10:30pm, a Friday barbecue and a Sunday brunch.
The history
the first beach club to open on the island.
The crowd
couples and groups who book ahead.
Catch is the classic Phuket beach club: book a front-row bed, arrive by 1pm, and stay through sunset into dinner. For a group, take two or three cabanas side by side rather than single sunbeds; the spend is the same credit either way, and the group stays together.

The rooms

Catch Beach Club's beds sit in rows facing the sea and the pool, and the set spend depends on the row and the size of the bed.

How do you book a bed at Catch?

You book by the bed: a sunbed, sala, cabana or DJ daybed. Reserve ahead for weekends and high season, because the front rows go first.

Catch doesn't publish a Catch Beach Club dress code: beachwear is normal by day and smart-casual in the evening. Bring ID for the bar: the drinking age is 20.

Ask Tanner and he books the beds with the rest of your day.

When is the best time to go?

From about 1pm to sunset. The day pass runs from 11am to 6pm, so you get the pool and the sunset at the central bar in one booking.

The kitchen does lunch and dinner from noon to 10:30pm, a barbecue buffet on Friday from 7pm to 10pm and brunch on Sunday from noon to 3pm, the club's site lists.

Ask Tanner for beds in the front row.

Where is Catch Beach Club?

Catch Beach Club Bang Tao is at 202/88 Choeng Thale, Thalang. It's part of the Twinpalms Phuket family, whose resort sits on Surin Beach next door, and it took over the old Bliss Beach Club site.

Bang Tao is on Phuket's west coast, north of Patong, so a car is the easy way there and back.

Ask Tanner to have the car waiting at the gate.

Your day, planned

A pool villa breakfast, two cabanas at Catch from 1pm, sunset at the bar, dinner at the club, then the car to Bangla Road for Illuzion.

The car waits all day.
