Apart from its simplicity and pristine nature, this fine sandy beach with its splendid curve, coupled with the surrounding indigo blue sea, has captured everyone’s heart these days. With a handful of tourists, this beach offers you with privacy. What could be more enjoyable than lying down on the sand and read your favourite books or spend some quality time doing family activities. All these simply turn Yanui Beach into a paradise on earth.

Take the road heading towards Laem Phrom Thep and drive downhill by 2 kilometres. There is a free parking space on the seaside. Ya Nui Beach is best visited in the evening because you could ride a kayak and witness the last of the sun. The view of the huge red sun that gently touches the sea surface will be one of your memorable moments.

The azure water is perfect for water sports, including jet skiing, parachuting, speed boat, sailing, and many more.

Kata Beach is broken down into two areas: Kata Yai and Kata Noi, which are split by a 500-metre rocky peninsula.

Immerse in the last ray at “Krathing Cape”
Krathing Cape is one of the best sunset viewpoints of Phuket. Located in Karon Sub-district, Mueang Phuket District, the cape is characterised by a sail-shaped rock protruding towards the sea, the symbol of Krathing Cape that all visitors come to take a picture. Despite the difficult access, tourists are guaranteed with the unforgettable memory of a sunset on the rocky plain, the panoramic view, the lush meadow against the steep cliff, and the cool breeze. This is a perfect spot to wind down amidst the sound of shutters and the vibe of the crowd to warm your heart.
