Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

This beach is ideal if you've had enough of Patong. A small cove in Soi Laemmumnok in Karon, so sheltered that the water is usually calm and suitable for swimming – without the pushy jet ski vendors and sales pressure of the larger beach areas. Perfect for a relaxing day.

Leave early. The gate opens at 9:00 AM, and the morning hours are ideal before the sun gets too strong and the day-trippers arrive. Facilities are basic, so bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and a hat. Shade is not guaranteed. Don't wait until dusk to stay longer, as the grounds close at 7:00 PM.

Who is it suitable for? For guests from Karon or Kata who are looking for a change of scenery without having to travel far, and for anyone who prefers swimming in calm waters to being surrounded by sun loungers. Those seeking beach bars, water sports, and a wide selection of restaurants will find better options elsewhere on the island.
