Cable Skiing |

Situated in Kathu is Phuket Water-Ski Cableways, an artificial lake with an overhead cable that tows skiers and wakeboarders round a rectangular course. Cable skiing is slightly more difficult than skiing behind a boat but great fun and can be enjoyed in any weather. |

Life jackets and boards are provided. Types of boards available include kneeboards, wakeboards, double-skis and mono-skis. For experienced wakeboarders there is a rail slide and a few ramps to launch yourself off. |
