nai han  Beach

      Nai Han Beach is Phuket’s southernmost beach flanked by steep hills and palm trees. The beach
has splendid sweep of white, clean sand and attractive bay. Travelers can take pleasure from the
charming Nong Han Lagoon beyond the beach, and enjoy an impressive bayview at the coastal hills.
Comparing to other popular beaches such as Patong, Nai Han is relatively quiet since most of its
beachfront land is occupied by the Nai Han Monastic Center. Nearby locates the Phuket Yacht Club,
established since 1986.
    Although the beach’s clear sea may be seductive to swimmers, visitors are not recommended to go
for a swim here during May to October since it is the Monsoon season when coastal currents can be
strong, and quite dangerous.
    Nai Han Beach is located next to Phromthep Cape, and about 18 kilometres from town. From
Chalong Intersection, take the road to Rawai Beach for some 3 kilometres. Take the right turn to Ban
Sai Yuan, Nong Han for another 4 kilometres. Regular bus service to and from Nai Han Beach and
Phuket town during daytime.
