Talking about Thailand, sea destinations commonly pop up in tourists’ minds. Unsurprisingly, 521 beaches are spread over 21 provinces, especially in the southern part of Thailand. This sounds like a perfect location for beach lovers who want to explore multiple beaches at a shoot. 

Well, if you love the idea of tropical weather, stunning blue sky, silky white sand, and beautiful turquoise water and you are one of those who seek to experience paradise on earth, don’t go anywhere as TAGTHAi will be your great assistance in choosing the right place. These 6 recommended beaches in Thailand won’t let you down because you can lie your body down, try unforgettable sea activities, or even enjoy a most lively party!


1. Klong Chao Beach, Koh Kood 

Klong Chao Beach is the farthest beach of Koh Kood which is an island located in the east of Thailand, Trat province. The white sand beach that curves against clear turquoise water is a trademark of this beach. This makes it difficult to keep your feet from touching the water or swimming. Tons of coconut trees stand and give shade in the afternoon when the sun is above your head. Another sea perfection is a long wooden bridge stretching out to the sea for you to capture a beautiful moment, especially at sunrise. On the opposite side of the beach, there are also a brackish water canal and a mangrove forest where you can experience more stuff, such as visiting Klong Chao waterfall, riding a boat to see nature on both sides along Khlong Chao, or perhaps watching fireflies that live in the mangrove forest at night. If you are looking for tranquility, why not add Klong Chao Beach to your list?


2. White Sand Beach, Koh Chang

White Sand Beach is another best beach in Trat province but situated on a different island called Koh Chang. Highlights of this beach are white soft sand as the name of the beach and crystal clear water attracting many tourists to visit frequently. Since White Sand Beach is a part of the national parks of Thailand, it is considered a great beach to stroll by the beach, swim, relax or sunbathe during the daytime. Besides that, having dinner and chilling at beachside restaurants or walking around the local food market on the main road will make your night second to none. At sunset, enjoying a spectacular view, that the sun slowly fades over the horizon, is worth it! For accommodation, dozens of bungalow resorts and hotels are located along the length of the beach, so it is convenient to spend the night there.


3. Hua Hin Beach

Hua Hin Beach is one of the most popular beaches among Thai people and foreigners. It is the most well-known beach in Prachuap Khiri Khan with five kilometers of beautiful sandy beachfront. In the past, during the weekend Hua Hin was once occupied by the elite, but it has become the country's leading tourist destination. Visitors like groups of friends, family, and couples will gather here to harvest quality moments. There are so many outdoor activities to keep you busy all day consisting of riding a horse, kitesurfing, banana ride, windsurfing, etc. Also, plenty of trendy cafes and restaurants are available both on the beach and on the road, so you can assure that you won't hear your stomach growl during the trip here.

4. Chaweng Beach, Koh Samui

Chaweng Beach is known to be a hotspot for visitors who come to Koh Samui in Surat Thani. The longest soft white sand, beautiful clear turquoise water, and a wide range of water activities can enhance your precious moment on the beach. Additionally, if swimming along the rocks, there are many interesting dive sites to see underwater creatures, such as corals and fish. Scuba diving for a more adventurous experience is also great to do so. Due to the location on the east coast, you will see one of the most breathtaking sunrises from the sea on the island. Despite the gorgeous and calm beachfront, the place is filled with party-goers, and the mood of the beach will be changed totally at night: quite chaotic and loud. Bars and restaurants will keep you awake and make you shout that the night is still young!

5. Haad Rin, Koh Phangan

Haad Rin is not only famous in terms of the dreamy beach in Koh Phangan but also a sensational place for a party. During the full moon of each month, thousands of people will gather at the beach to have fun and get loose at the party named Full Moon Party. Full Moon Party is the major part that brings liveliness and attention of people all over the world to the place. Out of the party season, Haad Rin is a calm beach filled with soft sand, coconut trees, cliffs, and beautiful clear water. This idyllic spot is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and doing sports like frisbee, jogging, and volleyball on the beach. Recommend! 


6. Railey Beach

Railay Beach is a stunning landscape in Krabi accessible only by longtail boat as the beach is surrounded by limestone cliffs on all sides bringing you closer to nature. Actually, Railay Beach is divided into two sides of the beach, East and West Railay Beach. The east and west beaches are connected and pave a small walkway that can walk through each other. The beach itself is extraordinary since it has smooth white sand and transparent water. Appease those who love rock climbing activities, a track to climb up to view the Lagoon and the closed sea in the middle of the valley is also awaiting you to explore. Apart from the beautiful sea, Railay Beach is also known for its picturesque sunset. When the sun goes down, the sunlight reflects on the rocks down to the bay.
