Beach Panwa

Many people ask: "Where to swim in Phuket during low season?" Here's the answer: Ao Yon Beach. This is exactly the place where there are never big waves — even in summer when western beaches (Patong, Karon, Kata) are stormy with red flags. The secret is simple: Ao Yon Beach is located on the eastern side of the island in the southern part of Cape Panwa, protected from strong winds and waves.

Here is a calm turquoise sea, fine sand and coconut palms, as well as many cafes, restaurants and hotels. Various water activities are available, including rental of swimming equipment.

The beach is divided by a small rocky outcrop into two unequal parts. The most beautiful one is the larger one. To get there, you need to drive to the Ao Yon sign, there will be a large parking lot. Then you need to walk along the bridge along the rocks. You can also get to the beach by parking at the pearl farm, and near the Flamingo beach club there is parking for bikes.

The tides and ebbs are pronounced on the beach, do not forget to check this before visiting. Photos of Ao Yon Beach and Ao Yon Beach on the map are available. How to get to Ao Yon Beach can be found on the website.
