8 Best Things to Do in Nai Yang Beach
What is Nai Yang Beach Most Famous For?
Nai Yang is a casuarina-lined beach in the north of Phuket. This relatively quiet beach is excellent for kite surfing, but there are many things to see and do besides lounging on its sands. Experience the local culture by visiting its morning market and a Buddhist temple (daily aerobic sessions take place in the morning). Sirinat National Park, which encompasses Nai Yang, Nai Thon and Mai Khao beaches, is a must-visit if you want to spend time in nature.

Nai Yang Beach is part of the Sirinat National Park in Phuket. There are a few salas (open-sided pavilions) to hide from the sun or rain on the beach. This northern area is a local favorite as the beach lacks the commercial feel of Patong or Karon. If you happen to drive through on a weekend, you’ll see many families, groups of friends or couples having picnic parties in the large shady areas next to the beach. Many food vendors usually gather along the roadside to prepare all the classic Thai dishes, sweets, drinks and local fruits. Mostrar más
