Thailand Beaches

When it comes to having a variety of beaches to choose from, Thailand offers plenty of options. Boasting some of the best beaches in the world, the most difficult task for those seeking the perfect beach getaway in Thailand is deciding which one to visit. Whether seeking the solitude of an isolated stretch of pristine, white sand shoreline, or a festive beach party atmosphere, Thailand offers something for everyone. With cheap flights to Thailand, travelers will find the two most popular beach destinations in Thailand are Phuket and Koh Samui, and with good reason, but there are some less known, but equally beautiful beach destinations waiting to be discovered.

Koh Mun Nork

This little slice of paradise offers all the comforts of a luxury resort with the feel of a deserted island. Koh Mun Nork is a private island located in the Gulf of Siam and is accessible only by a private vessel, owned by the only resort on the island. Inviting hammocks are scattered along the white sand beaches, offering a place to relax and unwind. For those who prefer a bit of adventure, snorkeling, diving and kayaking are also available, but the main theme of Koh Mun Nork is tranquility.

Koh Phangan

In sharp contrast to the peaceful ambiance of Koh Mun Nork, Koh Phangan is renowned as a party haven. Visitors from all parts of the world come to this lovely destination to experience the legendary night life of the Full Moon Party, held at Haad Rin beach, but there is much more to this charming island than midnight debauchery. Sparkling white sand beaches accent the beautiful turquoise water, with sheer mountains creating a dramatic backdrop. The outstanding combination of natural beauty and plentiful activities make this beach a favorite.

Koh Tao

This divers paradise was once a favorite hideaway for pirates, and a relaxing stopover for weary fisherman. It even served as a prison for a time, but don't let its colorful background fool you. Koh Tao has some of the most breathtaking beaches anywhere in Thailand. With an abundance of outstanding dive sites, Koh Tao is considered the premier diving destination in Thailand.

Koh Chang

White sand dotted with an abundance of lush palm trees artfully underscores the inviting crystal water of Koh Chang. Located in the eastern Gulf of Siam, Koh Chang is the second largest island in Thailand, although one of the least developed. This island has an abundance of spectacular beaches, but the most picturesque are located along the west shoreline.

So grab one of many flights to Phuket or Thailand and enjoy a perfect getaway on one of the many beaches that Thailand has to offer.
