Public beach Bang Tao

Banana Beach in Phuket is located in the northwest between popular Bang Tao and Nai Thon beaches. This is a quiet haven surrounded by palm trees and cliffs. For a long time, the beach remained unknown as it was hidden by nature from prying eyes. See Banana Beach on the map.

The size of the beach is only about 200 meters. Its curved shape really resembles a banana. During high tides, you need to be careful, as only a small strip of land remains for vacationers, and during a storm, waves can even reach the trees.

The diverse underwater world is ideal for snorkeling. You can see many interesting fish – the transparent water allows you to do this with ease.

It's better to enter the sea in the center of the beach; on the sides, there are rocks and corals. The descent to the beach is steep but not difficult. You can leave transport by the road; there is also paid parking. Find out how to get to Banana Beach.

There are several small cafes on the beach where you can enjoy local cuisine. Boats are parked offshore, which can be rented for a trip. See photos of Banana Beach.
