Karon Beach

Karon is another of the beautiful, west-coast beaches that have made Phuket famous.

This beach is the first one south of Patong, and is separated from Patong by a large headland. A road connects them, and one can drive from Karon to Patong in 15 minutes.

South of Karon is Kata. Only a small headland separates these two, and they are often spoken of as one unit, Kata-Karon.
