The beach is one of the better beaches on the island, but the water is shallow and almost impossible to really swim in.However, there are some great bbq's in the evening in the restaurants dotted along the beach. Also a place to visit for Thai massages - 300 bhts for traditional thai massage. The path down to the beach, via... More

possibly the best beach I have been to. it is stunning, and not overdeveloped at all. It would be a great place to stay. there are some nice beach bars. the sand is super soft. There is good snorkelling around the rocks to the left and a couple of dive shops on the beach. If you were to stay there... More

This beach is very perfect for getting back to your senses after full moon party. we were too hangovered on the next day of full moon party. Then, we spent a peaceful afternoon here just sitting & lying in the shallow warm water. It was... More

We walked about an hour to get to this beach as we'd seen a list of Thailand's top 10 beaches and this was in it. Don't get me wrong, it isn't horrendous or anything but it's distinctly average when compared to other beaches around Thailand we've seen. Haad Yao beach just round the corner for instance is much nicer. The... More

Stunning beach sand is soft like flour! Water is crystal clear and warm great for snorkeling. If you are staying elsewhere on the island hire a bike and coke up for the day. Great seafood BBQs at sunset in Many of the restaurants and you can eat right by the waters edge and watch the beautiful sunsets.

beautiful beach... hire a scooter and drive along the coast on the way to this place... wonderful views, crystal clear water and clean sand. Not too busy or overdeveloped like haad rin (where full moon festival is)

This was our favourite beach we tried. It is safe and has a great view. The choice of places to eat makes it a totally relaxing day. No sun lounges but that makes it even better
