An island paradise full of idyllic beaches, magical sunsets and cerulean waters, Phuket provides travellers with an enchanting coastal escape. The perfect destination for couples and families alike, the island has a wealth of adventures to be experienced as well as a rich cultural heritage.
Phuket is also an ideal place for some beach hopping adventures that let you experience the glorious coastal sunshine, soft sand and exhilarating water sports which can be enjoyed by young and old alike. Since the island is such a popular destination, finding a beach away from the crowds is easier said than done, but you do have options to consider such as Kata Noi.
Located on the south-western side of Phuket, Kata Noi beach can be found near the well known Kata Beach. Set alongside a bay, this small, 700 metre stretch of shoreline offers an ideal alternative to the often packed beaches that lose some of their charm due to the crowds. As you walk along the powdery sand and take in the breathtaking views around you, it is easy to get lost in thought as the waves rhythmically crash into the shore.
A great place to just sit back and enjoy a lazy day of sunbathing and working on that perfect holiday tan, Kata Noi is set amidst jungle backdrops and clear ocean waters which are ideal for a variety of activities and water sports. Banana boat rides offer plenty of excitement for the entire family, while not to be missed is a chance to so snorkelling which gives you a chance to catch a glimpse of a stunning underwater world with its corals and fish species.
Jet skiing, kayaking and parasailing are among the other activities that one can try here. Kata Noi also attracts surfers during May to October when the presence of larger waves offers some thrilling surfing fun!
Another way to experience the magnificent shorelines of the island is by staying at a Phuket beach resort such as Anantara Phuket Resort Thailand. This Phuket resort can be found along the Mai Khao beach and provides an idyllic sanctuary by the sea where you can enjoy the sun and have fun in the sand and the surf.
