Beaches

Patong
The most poignant symbols of development and crowded
beach in Phuket. This is the busiest area of great
concentration of nightlife activities, tourist hub,
restaurant and shops. For this naughty beach of 3 kms,
you always find beautiful white sand and clear water in
the lap of crescent nature. The deck chairs and
umbrellas are presented almost all around the beaches,
offering an ideal place to relax and soak up the sun
with the pleasantly cool sea breeze. In brief, there
are a large member of shops and nightlife hubs, as well
as other entertainment and recreational activities.
Clearly, if you are looking for a remote gateway, you
won't find it in Patong.

Rawai
Rawai Beach is located on the south-eastern side of
Phuket. Although beach in not a good idea for swimming
due to shallow water many long tails anchored off the
shore, it is popular and a nice destination to picnic
under the shade of big trees and plenty of seafood
restaurants can be found here. There is a sea-gypsy
village located on the eastern end of the beach which has
a small fish market. Besides, you can find a long-tail
boat service here to take you out to the smaller
surrounding islands.

Nai Harn
Near Phuket¯s southernmost tip is picturesque and
stunning Nai Harn Beach. Accommodation here is limited
but the beach is easy to get to from Kata and Karon.
This fronts a loveliest lagoon that is either faced to
the clear water or closed off by a sandy bunger,
depending on the season. A small temple relatively keeps
the Nai Harn undeveloped, while Le Meridien Phuket Yacht
Club is set its striking position on the northern side.
You cal always find the upmarket housing development and
a few local cuisine and convenient stores, just 100
metres off the beach

Kata Beach
A surfer's paradise on the stunning bay, lies on the
southern part of the Karon Beach, Phuket. It offers
clear crystal waters, pure sands, beautiful scenery, and
relaxed atmosphere with both northern and southern ends
with a few hotels and resorts. Along the beach is fairly
small size, Kata is the great idea for family vacation
or couple holiday. There are quite a a number of shops,
restaurants and pubs around Kata Centre. if you are
planning a trip to Phuket - Thailand, Kata is perhaps
the best compromise between charming nature and lovely
atmosphere.
Note that don't miss the King's Cup Regatta if you are
planning to Phuket on December.

Karon
Karon is a vibrant beach town on south of Patong Beach
Phuket. With the long array of powdery white sand and
never feels overcrowded, many tourist choose here
instead of Patong as accommodation, economy guesthouses,
and restaurants are plenty. Besides, the beach is always
fairly quiet comparing to Patong.

Kamala
It takes a 10-minute drive between Patong Beach to
Kamala Beach in Phuket. One of the most picturesque
beach tucked in a valley and a well-enclosed bay to
fishing villages and tropical rain forested views.
Scenery is great, water is clear and sand is white.
Kamala is home of the prime night attraction, Phuket
FantaSea entertainment complex on the northern end. This
is where you can enjoy a delicious dinner and vibrant
nightly stage performance.

Nai Yang is a beautiful, quiet beach that is very
different from the other beaches, very famous among
local. Here the quite beach is backed by tall casuarinas

nice peaceful place to rest under the sun or take in a
swim.

This is the most northern of Phuket's beaches, just off
the airport. You can find the magnificently long and
endless stretch of power beach. Beach has no tourist
