Two easily accessible and very tranquil bays located opposite each other in Chalok Baan Kao Bay. Saan Jao Beach is about a ten minute walk along the beach and path to the right of the bay as you look out to sea. Freedom Beach, on the left side, is just a three minute ride from Chalok town. It’s a pristine beach often visited by locals and holidaymakers alike.
A choice of hotels here from two small family-run bungalow resorts on the north side, to a brand new franchised hotel development. Wherever you decide to stay, this beach offers a view of the sunset all year round.
A small, very isolated cape with two small beaches on opposite sides. A great place to get away from it all and to unwind in a serene and unspoiled natural environment. Usually very quiet with few visitors.
Two unspoiled and peaceful beaches with a simple family-run resort and a relaxed, friendly feel. The main beach (Sai Nuan Beach 1) can only be accessed by walking or by taking a longtail boat, so it is very quiet with no vehicle noise. Both beaches have little to no traffic and there is lots of sand so it’s an ideal place for families with children.
This small private bay is located ten minutes walk south of Mae Haad town. There are three resorts here, two luxury and a third offering budget bungalow accommodation. A quiet place to stay, with very few visitors during the day.
