Quiet and laid-back, it is lined with rustic eateries and sun loungers, with long-tail boats offering excursions to nearby bays. It is also a popular spot for watching Phuket\u2019s spectacular sunsets. Stay right on the beach at the four-star Sunwing Bangtao Beach hotel, a family-friendly resort with six outdoor pools, a kids\u2019 club and everything required for a stress-free holiday.

Spacious and uncrowded, it offers just a few cafes, beach massage spots and a SUP club, which leaves plenty of space to lay down your beach towel in peace.

As darkness falls, the energy ramps up and social butterflies emerge \u2013 Patong\u2019s party gets started.

Known for its golden sands and untouched charm, it\u2019s backed by tropical jungle and lapped by clear waters. It\u2019s perfect for swimming in the dry season or enjoying lazy sunset strolls. Midway along the beach, a few low-key and authentic Thai street food stalls offer tasty dishes without disrupting the calm atmosphere. Stay at the five-star Moracea by Khao Lak Resort at the foot of green hills and just steps from the sea. Nearby, explore Lam Ru National Park or kayak through serene mangroves.\u202f&nbsp; Elegant escape: Natai Beach A vast stretch of powder-soft sand, Natai Beach offers peaceful swims, fiery sunsets and a genuine sense of escape.
