Laem Sing Beach

This is one of the undeveloped beaches frequently missed by visitors who are unaware of its location. Its a five minute walk down a fairly steep path to reach this remote little beach. The natural beauty of this beach is enhanced by the fact it sits well below the highway which lends a serene and quiet feeling that is not always present on other beaches in Phuket.

The interesting rock formations along Laem Sing Beach offer some the best snorkeling opportunities on the island. Noted during recent visits was an increase in the number of beach venders and the occasional sighting of jetski activity, but it is still a pleasant little beach get-a-way well worth going out of the way for.

Kalim Beach

It is not yet developed and thus affords some privacy. Backs of the beach are accommodations.The waters contain extensive coral reefs.

Evergreen trees rim this small, curving bay beneath the foothills north of Kamala. Surin is home to Phuket?s first golf course, a nine-hole course lay out more than sixth years ago during the reign of King Rama VII. It is now largely in disuse except as a park.

The steep incline of the beach, turbulent water, and big waves make Surin a dangerous place to swim during the rainy season. Located at the end of Sri Suntorn Road, The Road running west from the Two Heroines Monument, 24 kms.From Phuket Town. Accommodation and restaurants are nearby.

Nui Beach

Nui Beach is a guaranteed remote beach experience that will rival anything you will find on the offshore islands, give this beautiful little beach paradise a try.

You might be able to reach Nui Beach on a mountain bike or motorcycle but it is not recommended. It is certainly not to be tried on a standard rental motorbike like a "Honda Dream".

The safest way to enjoy this truly beautiful and pristine beach is by walking the 2km trail to the beach.

Pansea Beach has lively coral reefs and artistic rock formations embellish both ends that seem to frame the beach into one idyllic vision of a tropical beach paradise.

Beauty has its price and in this case the natural beauty of this small protected natural bay attracted the famous Chedi Resort and the ultra-exclusive Amanpuri Hotel.

Pansea Beach seems to be an exception to the law in Thailand that all beaches are public, because these hotels are allowed to run off all outsiders.

Yanoi Beach

A sleepy little hide away with interesting rock formations and good snorkeling from the beach.

Located at the bottom of the hill between the Promthep viewpoint and the wind-powered generators on the next hill to the west, this beach is easy to drive past.
