The best beaches in Phuket
Below you will find information about each beach, with all the details a tourist needs to know. Each place can be found on a map of Phuket with beaches.
Characteristics of Phuket beaches
Kata Beach
This place is very popular among Russian tourists. Due to this, a large number of people come during the season, and sometimes it is difficult to simply find a place to stay. Perhaps in the central part of the beach you can find a small corner of privacy. On the right side of the beach there is a river that is not the most pleasant and has a specific smell, so it is better to look for a hotel in the opposite part. On the left side, the water is cleaner, and the relaxation atmosphere itself is much higher.
Karon
It is no less popular among Russian tourists, since it most often falls on people’s travel packages. The scale is very impressive, the shore is amazing in its size, it is huge.
It is better to come there in winter, as it is stormy at other times of the year. The best place for lovers of a quiet life.
Romantics will appreciate the magnificent views from the shore.
Patong
The most popular beach on Phuket island. You can meet not only Russian-speaking tourists, but also representatives of other nationalities. Tourists from all over the world flock to it and therefore there are more than enough people. During the winter months the water is especially clean; it is recommended to swim on the right side of the beach. Life here proceeds differently than in other parts of the island - there is always fun, noisy companies, an invigorating atmosphere, where life is in full swing. There are many inexpensive hotels nearby, the price of which is suitable for tourists on a limited budget.
Kata Noi
Located near Kata Beach. You can get to it over the hill on foot. Stunning views that will mesmerize your mind are guaranteed. Hotels in the area are quite expensive and are not suitable for all tourists. The waves are often very large and you can rent a surfboard, which is what many who come to this beach do. You can buy a special snorkeling mask and admire the small fish that overflow the waters of Kata Noi.
Kamala
A place ideal for a relaxing holiday with children. It’s quite difficult to find Russian tourists; there are practically none. During the season there are no waves at all, but when it rains it is stormy. If you need privacy, then you need to go to the central part of the coast; there are practically no people there at all. The magical sunsets of Phuket are best seen in the center. There are very few hotels in that area.
Laem Sing
A small beach located between two others. Entrance costs around 20 baht, so there aren’t that many people there - not everyone wants to pay for the opportunity to lie in the sun. The water there is the purest, the landscape is truly fantastic. But there will be problems with housing. There are no hotels nearby, only beach holidays and nothing more.
Surin
One of the best holiday destinations in all of Phuket. The sea in this place is deep, and it becomes so almost immediately. The water is clean. Large and strong waves can often be seen. Hotels are more expensive than near other beaches. The price is high due to the certain “eliteness” of the beach; various celebrities like to relax there and the service is much better. Another difference is the pine trees surrounding the beach, which are an excellent substitute for palm trees.
Bang Tao
On the map you can see that it is located in the southern part of the island. Another quiet and peaceful corner, even at the height of the season you can find a place for complete privacy, due to the fact that it is very long. The sea is calm all year round, the chance of seeing big waves is almost zero. The beach is best suited for families with small children. Nearby you can find decent hotels with good service, various services, spas and expensive shops.
Nai Harn
The best beach in the southern part of Phuket. There are no waves during the season, but in the off-season their size increases. The sea in this area is clean. There are no hotels nearby, so it is not suitable for every tourist. But not far away there is a famous French restaurant, run by one of the best chefs in Australia.
Yanuy
A very tiny beach with clear water, ideal for snorkeling. There is only one hotel nearby (it must be said that it is very good), but others can be found a little further away. The place is very sunny, you need to try very hard to find a secluded corner hidden from the scorching sun. It is worth noting the presence of stones at the bottom of the sea. Yanui is best suited in winter; there is nothing to do there at other times of the year. On the map you can see that it is located in the southern part of the island.
Banana
On the map you can find it at the top, in the northern part of the island. This place is the standard of a tropical paradise - rocky terrain dividing the beach into two parts, wild coconut thickets, snow-white sand reminiscent of a white veil. The clearest water allows you to see the attractive seabed. Particular attention in this matter should be paid to the reefs, which in that area have incredibly charming views. The most interesting beach for tourists is Banana Beach. Phuket is proud of such a place.
