Tourist attraction Patong

Merlin Beach is a small peaceful beach near Patong that belongs to Marriott hotel but is open to everyone. Mostly hotel guests relax here, few tourists. Great spot for those seeking quiet close to busy Patong.

We recommend coming during high tide and wearing swimming shoes, as to reach depth, you have to walk over rocks. The waves here are weak.

Merlin Beach is situated in a picturesque bay surrounded by tropical trees and is especially beautiful at sunset. If you take a walk, you can find a meadow with flowers and panoramic views of the coast. As you can see, there are plenty of photo spots. See photos of Merlin Beach.

In addition, there is a rich underwater world: white sand mixed with shells and corals, many reefs, and transparent turquoise water. It's a great place for snorkeling, but the entry is quite rocky. Don't forget to check the tide schedule before visiting to ensure your expectations for relaxation are met. Find out how to get to Merlin Beach.

The beach infrastructure includes a massage salon, bars, and restaurants.
