Super clear water. Soft sand. No rocks
Jan 2021
One of the top 3 beaches on Phuket island. Super clear water. Soft sand. No rocks in the water so you can easily walk in the water. No sea weed. Quiet because not crowded. Lots of low priced food shops along the beach

Good beach in the south of the island
Jan 2021 • Couples
I enjoyed this beach. Its location is a bit isolated in the south of the island. It gets rather crowded in the afternoon though. The water is clear and a bit greenish.

Nice little beach
Feb 2020 • Friends
We had visited Nai Harn Beach during our sightseeing in Phuket. We had booked private car through Klook for full day sightseeing and this beach and the adjacent Buddha temple was part of our itenary. This is a beautiful beach with blue sea and yellow sand. The beach was crowded with tourists swimming, sunbathing or relaxing in the beach chairs. We had simple lunch in one of the small restaurants near the beach.

Best Beach in Phuket
Nov 2020 • Couples
By far the nicest beach in Phuket especially at this time of year. Also nice while there are no tourists about. This is the best time to make the most of Phuket beaches before the borders open back up.

Gorgeous beach
Feb 2020 • Couples
Sunset was spectacularly beautiful!
We had a lovely picnic, dipped in those crystal blue waters, watched the sun set & then a bunch of local fishermen bring in some bounty as it gets dark.

Crystal waters
Mar 2020 • Couples
Excellent beach at southern end of Phuket. Pure white sand and crystal clear water. Great beach for kids. Couple of resorts close by for lunch, local trinket shops and produce available as well as massages etc. lovely big trees sit above beach if it gets to hot for you. Only downside is that it can get a bit overrun at times. Very enjoyable experience

Is there any shortcut/pathway on the east end of the beach to the road which leads to the Windmill viewpoint? Or do you have to walk all the way down by the Nai Harn Lake to get to that road? Shortcut would make the trip almost 1 kilometer shorter.

Dear All:
I wish to know easy ways to go from Kata beach to Nai Harn beach?
I plan to stay at the Windmill resort near Nai Harn next month. Thank you.

The Windmill Resort is near Yanui Beach, you can walk there, but Nai Harn Beach is about 4 Kim over a large hill, if you are planning to go there daily you will need transport, as this is a quiet area of Phuket and no Tuk Tuk or Taxi on every corner

If we stay in an hotel near this beach, is it easy to reach other beaches or beautiful places by walking or cycling? Thanks

Hello,! @ Nai Harn area is very pretty and from there you can move easily on other beaches. There are several clubs in Nai Harn but it is quieter than Patong. The best way is the scooter, now there is not much traffic!
We are going to phuket from Singapore with 3 days cruise. Please suggest which beach is beautiful and how to go there ?

We did this cruise and hired a local travel guide to give us a day tour. She met us at the jetty and her driver (in a nice air conditioned 7 seater vehicle all day) took us around Phuket. Was well worth the money as you get to see quite a lot. If you are just after beaches, then you may think the travel further south may take too much time with the return ride back, as traffic is horrendous you’d only get a couple of hours at the beach.
Agree with other reviews below that the main ones are pretty busy & not clean

Can you snorkel here

The short answer is you can but I would not bother. The water was fairly clean but I do not believe there is anything to see. If you just want the practice, great.

Yes, but, as the law, just for the 10% of the beach.
