Best Beaches in Thailand: The Andaman Coast

Phuket
Patong Beach
Patong is the largest beach on the island of Phuket. It has been Thailand’s number one beach destination for years. Once a fishing village, it is now one of the island’s two cities. Patong is the main tourist and entertainment district on the island of Phuket, with a large number of pubs, bars, and restaurants catering to every nationality.
Patong Beach stretches 4 km in length and has a wide coastline with silky white sand and warm water. There are a number of water sports to be enjoyed here, including jet skis, windsurfing, wake boarding, water skiing, and para sailing. Hotels and accommodations here are significantly more expensive than anywhere else in Thailand, and there is a wide variety of budget to five star accommodations to choose from.
The beach is lined with lounge chairs and sun umbrellas which are available for rent. Food, drinks, and clothing are all available from hawkers who sell their wares on the beach all day.
Karon Beach
Karon Beach is the second largest beach in Phuket. Despite the large resort complexes in the area, there is not a lot of development on the beach itself. However, the ongoing development of bars, nightclubs, and luxury hotels in the area has already begun to wreak havoc on the environment.
Karon is less crowded than Patong and offers a full range of beach facilities and activities. There are also several fine dining establishments in the area. The sand here is a bit coarser compared to other beaches in Phuket.
The southern point of Karon Beach has a gorgeous stretch of coral reef which is perfect for snorkeling. Sun chairs and umbrellas are also available for rent here.
Kata Beach
If you’re looking for a quiet beach in Phuket, Kata Beach is your best option. Palm trees, warm water and stunning scenery haven’t found juxtaposition alongside massive shopping malls and luxury hotels just yet.
Kata Beach is well-known as an excellent surfing beach, but is less than ideal for families with young children, especially during the low season. There are a number of water activities on Kata Beach, including diving, banana boats, and jet skis. Kata also has several 4 star hotels, seafood restaurants, and shopping places located along the beach.
Similian Island
Surin Island
Phang-Nga
Khao Lak
Beautiful Phang Nga, located just north of Phuket Island, is famous for its rugged limestone outcroppings jutting from the sea and its haunting landscape. One of Thailand’s most peaceful resort destinations, Khao Lak, can also be found here, and its gorgeous coastline is home to some of the best beaches in Thailand. This area also embraces three national parks, encompassing a tropical forest, wide white sandy beaches, and stunning beachfront accommodations.
After the area was hit by the 2004 tsunami, refurbished hotels providing quality accommodations have sprung up all over the region. Visitors here can now enjoy infinity pools, lush green gardens and serene lotus ponds.
Khao Lak’s proximity to a tropical forest draws nature lovers of all kinds. There are a number of eco-tours available here, as well as activities like rafting, hiking, elephant trekking, and exploring temple caves.
Krabi
With some 83 islands scattered within the area, all within short reach of each other, the islands of Krabi are an island-hoppers paradise. During low tides, some of these islands are accessible by sandbars and you can literally walk on water from island to island.
Railay Beach
Clear blue waters embrace Railay Beach. You might be surprised to learn that this tropical paradise, accessible only by boat, is technically part of the mainland. Railay Beach is nestled amongst towering limestone peaks and surrounded by lush jungle. Although the beach here is small, it, it is still quite popular during peak season. Throughout the rest of the year, beach lovers looking for a quiet beach vacation will be pleasantly surprised by the serenity of the area. Facilities here are limited, as are hotel rooms.
Phi Phi Island
Phi Phi Island is well-known for its silky fine white sand beaches, stunning limestone rock formations, natural cave systems, clear trurqoise water, and a rich variety of marine life. There’s no small wonder that Phi Phi Island is the most beach destination on the Andaman Coast after Phuket.
Most visitors might be surprised to learn that Phi Phi Island is actually two islands. The larger of the two, Phi Phi Don, offers a variety of accommodations to choose from. Its clean, beautiful beaches are perfect for sunbathing and frolicking in the water.
Phi Phi Ley, on the other hand, is popular for its cliffs, natural caves, and water-filled canyon. Phi Phi Island offers just about everything you could ask for in an island. If it’s adventure travel that you’re after, scuba diving, snorkeling, sea kayaking, and rock climbing activities can all be found on this tropical paradise.
Ao Nang Beach
Out of all of the beaches in Krabi, Ao Nang Beach is widely considered to be the best. Despite being the most developed beach in the area, Ao Nang also claims the cleanest environment, and it is generally less crowded and quite a bit quieter than other nearby beaches.
This beach is also very kid-friendly, with a nice, long, shallow coastline for kids who love to play in the water. There is also a wide range of accommodations and facilities, including food, boat tours, and adventure hikes. When the tide is low, Pai Plong Beach is easily accessible on foot.
Koh Lanta
Koh Lanta consists of two islands: Koh Lanta Yai and Koh Lanta Noi. Most visitors head straight for Koh Lanta Yai, which harbors a number of tourist facilities and a wide range of accommodations. There are a number of beaches in the area, including Ba Kan Tiang, Khlong Khong, Khlong Nin, Khlong Dao, Kho Kwang, and Phra Ae. The headquarters for Mu Koh Lanta National Park are located at the southern end of the island. The eastern side of the island is also popular with visitors, who come to see the sea gypsy village and an old community of Koh Lanta. Koh Lanta Noi houses the district office.
