Beaches do not come more idyllic than Thailand, Southeast Asia’s most popular holiday destination. From alluring Koh Phi Phi to bustling Phuket, this tropical destination has 2,000 miles of fragmented coastline and some of the best sandy beaches in the world.
The crowded beaches serving Bangkok and Pattaya overlook the Gulf of Thailand, while further south Thai beaches around Phuket and Krabi are lapped by the Andaman Sea. Meanwhile, over 8,000 islands offer exotic beaches of white powder sand, warm, crystaline water and breathtaking scenery. Some of Thailand’s most exclusive and beautiful beaches can be found on islands such as Koh Samui, Koh Yao, Nang Yuan and Koh Phangan – famous for its overnight Full Moon Parties.
When it comes to snorkelling and scuba diving, Thailand is outstanding. The clear warm waters coupled with tour availability, low-cost tours and affordable tuition make it a top choice. Night diving, wreck diving and shark diving are available around Phuket, Khao Lak and the Phi Phi Islands. Watersports, swimming, snorkelling, boat trips, kayaking and paddleboarding are popular at most resorts but perhaps the most iconic thing to do on a Thailand beach is relax beneath a shady palm tree and enjoy a massage.
