We take you to the most beautiful beaches in Thailand! There are countless islands, hidden bays and white sandy beaches in southern Thailand. Some are very hidden on a steep slope and can only be reached by an off-road shuttle (e.g. Paradise Beach or Nui Beach on Phuket - even the way to the beach is a real adventure here!) For families with children, spacious, gently sloping beaches such as the Karon Beach. But it's not just Phuket that offers beautiful beaches; you'll also find hidden gems and secluded beach paradises on other islands and on the mainland. Our absolute favorite beaches include Taling Ngam Beach on Koh Samui and Taa Toh Lagoon Beach on Koh Tao!

Koh Ma
The Koh Ma peninsula is located in the north of Koh Phangan. It is connected to Mae Haad Beach by a strip of sand and can only be accessed at low tide. So be sure to pay attention to the tides if you plan to visit this place. There is not much to see on the island itself, but there is beautiful nature and plenty of shady spots. It's also worth taking snorkeling equipment with you. You can discover lots of colorful fish and coral reefs in the crystal-clear water! The...
Hin Kong sandbank
Hin Kong is located in the north-west of the island and is not very appealing at first glance. Only at low tide does this beach become a real highlight. As soon as the water recedes, a long walkable sandbank remains, where you can take a romantic stroll into the sunset. Dog owners also enjoy walking their dogs on the beach here. Locals, on the other hand, take the opportunity to collect a few mussels and crabs on the spot. There are several restaurants and cafés on the...
Zen Beach
Zen Beach is very popular with locals and expats alike! It is located somewhat secluded in the northwest of Koh Phangan and is best reached by scooter. During the day, the white sandy beach is the perfect place to relax and swim, while in the evening it gets really lively and attracts many people who enjoy the sunset together and dance exuberantly in the sand. There are a few bars, seating areas and shady spots on site....
Haad Sadet Beach
Haad Sadet Beach is the perfect place for those who love peace and nature. The path to the beach leads through the Than Sadet National Park, which is why a maintenance fee of 100 baht per person must be paid. The bay is very idyllic and offers a dreamlike setting with large rocks, fine sand and turquoise water. Here you can relax during the day, swim, snorkel or spontaneously explore the national park. You might even come across the island's pigs, which are peacefully...
Haad Rin Beach
At the southern tip of the island is Haad Rin Beach, which has two beaches to offer: Haad Rin Nok (Sunrise Beach) and Haad Rin Nai (Sunset Beach). The famous Full Moon Party takes place every month on Sunrise Beach. But it is also worth making a stop away from the party night. In the small streets you will find many shopping opportunities for souvenirs or clothing. On the beach there are numerous restaurants, beach bars and some water sports activities such as jet skiing. The...
Haad Salad Beach
Haad Salad Beach in the north of Koh Phangan is known for its coral reefs and colorful underwater world. The sea is generally calm and clear, making this a perfect snorkeling spot. In addition to snorkeling, there are other activities such as kayaking and stand-up paddling. On the beach, you can treat yourself to a Thai massage or try out one of the delicious restaurants. By the way, the famous beach club "Koh Raham" is not far away - you should definitely...
Thong Nai Pan Beach
Thong Nai Pan Beach consists of two sister bays and is located on the east coast of Koh Phangan. The southern Pan Yai Beach is one of our favorite beaches on the island! Shallow water, fine long sandy beach and turquoise shallow sea. The place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and also offers a few beach bars and shady spots. You can go swimming, kayaking or jet skiing on site. The upper bay of Pan Noi is a little livelier, especially in high season. Both...
Bottle Beach
Bottle Beach is a beautiful secluded beach in the north of Koh Phangan. You can reach it either by cab boat, after a 30-minute hike or by shuttle for 200 baht per person one way. The path is challenging, but doable. Once at the bottom, you will find a few restaurants and accommodation. The entire stretch of beach is very clean and quiet, but rocky in places, which is why water shoes are recommended. Tip: If you're in this area, you should definitely take a bath before...
