Beaches
Banana Beach on Coral Island
Banana Beach on Coral Island (Koh Hae) is now one of the most famous day trip beaches near Phuket. Ranked the world’s number 2 beach by Tripadvisor for 2025, it’s a busy spot with clear water, white sand, and many activities.
Friendship Beach Phuket
Friendship Beach lies on the southeast coast of Phuket along Chalong Bay, just north of Rawai Beach. We recently revisited this little-known spot because it’s such a different experience from the island’s more popular beaches.
Sunset Beach
Sunset Beach is a charming and laid-back beach in the southern part of Khao Lak. The beach offers a tranquil setting, with soft golden sand and clear blue waters perfect for swimming and relaxing
Khuk Khak Beach
Khuk Khak Beach, the second busiest area in Khao Lak, after Bang Niang, offers a vibrant coastal experience. Known for its lively beachfront bars and restaurants, Khuk Khak Beach provides a lively atmosphere for visitors to enjoy
Nang Thong Beach
Nang Thong Beach is a picturesque destination known for its stunning scenery and tranquil atmosphere. The beach boasts a long stretch of soft golden sand, and lined casuarina trees, offering visitors a serene setting to relax and unwind.
Bang Niang Beach
Bang Niang Beach, the busiest part of Khao Lak, Thailand, is renowned for its vibrant atmosphere and array of attractions
White Sand Beach
The White Sand Beach is superb, with soft sand and a lot of trees to provide a welcome shade on hot days. Several small local hotels share the beachfront, with a very welcoming setting for their restaurants and bars. They even rent loungers on the beach, which is a rare feature in Khao Lak since it is not allowed on most beaches. The hotels are quite basic.
Pak Weep Beach
Pak Weep Beach is a serene and lesser-known beach with a few hotels and beachfront restaurants. It offers visitors a peaceful retreat with its soft white sands and crystal-clear waters, perfect for swimming and relaxing
Bang Sak Beach
Bang Sak Beach offers a serene escape with its long stretch of golden sand and clear waters. Unlike some of the more bustling beaches in the area, Bang Sak is relatively quiet and peaceful, ideal for those seeking a tranquil getaway
Ban Thap Tawan Beach
Ban Thap Thawan is at the top of the coastline and is blessed with amazingly white sand and clear shallow waters. Le Meridien is a large resort designed to offer everything guests need to spend their entire holiday in the hotel. There are some restaurants and bars on the beach that give you a bit of a tropical feel and cheaper prices, too.
Bang Tao Beach Video 🎬
This Bang Tao Beach Video takes you to one of Phuket’s longest and most relaxing beaches. Stretching for nearly 6 kilometres on the island’s west coast, Bang Tao offers a mix of quiet areas and upscale beach clubs, making it a popular spot for both visitors and locals.
The northern end remains peaceful, with soft sand and clear water, perfect for swimming during the high season. The southern part is home to luxury resorts, beachfront restaurants, and some of Phuket’s best beach clubs, including Catch Beach Club and Carpe Diem.
There are no jet skis or noisy activities here, creating a more laid-back atmosphere. Restaurants along the beach serve fresh seafood and Thai dishes, and the sunsets at Bang Tao are some of the best in Phuket. Watch the video to see why Bang Tao Beach is a great place to relax while still having plenty of dining and entertainment options nearby.
Laem Thong Beach
Laem Thong Beach is a beautiful and secluded beach located on the northern tip of Phi Phi Island. The beach boasts clear turquoise waters and soft white sand, making it an ideal spot for swimming, sunbathing, and snorkelling
Long Beach
Long Beach is a superb sandy bay located just next to Tonsai Bay and easy to access by walking along the coast. The place is home to excellent hotels and bungalows like the Phi Phi Villa Resort.
Loh Dalum Bay
Loh Dalum is a stunningly beautiful shallow bay located on the southern side of Phi Phi Island. It is easily recognizable as the wide expanse of turquoise water that is visible on the right-hand side of the famous panoramic photo taken from the viewpoint
Promthep Beach
Promthep Beach is tiny, almost impossible to access and therefore not well known; we don’t even know if it has a name, so we call it Promthep Beach because it hides on one side of the famous Promthep Cape in the very south of Phuket.
Heeowhat Beach
Heeowhat Beach is quite large, with tall trees near Cape Panwa on the east coast of Phuket. It is home to the Pullman Panwa Phuket Resort, but because the beach is very wide and shallow, it is not a swimming beach, just great for walks in a peaceful atmosphere.
Makham Beach
Makham Beach is one of the island’s least-known beaches, hidden near Cape Panwa when driving from Phuket Town. The beach is lovely to walk on, but the sea is not as blue as other tourist beaches on the East Coast
Siam Beach
Siam Beach on the west coast of Phuket is so small and hard to reach via stairs that it is not worth going there; we list it here because it is considered a beach, good for snorkelling.
Yae Beach
Yae Beach is not fantastic, but we wanted to see it since it is hard to find. It’s on a cape between Patong and Kamala, and you won’t see much there, just a small hut selling drinks when it’s open.
