Phuket Best Hidden Gem Beach - Banana Beach

Are you thinking of spending a holiday by a beach in Phuket? 

Phuket is a popular destination for people who wish to spend a dream holiday by the beach. Searching beach names in Phuket, you might have seen beach names like Patong, Freedom, Kata, etc. Then, you will be in an indecisive situation where should I go, or is there any peaceful one? TAGTHAi will help you resolve this because there is a hidden gem, called Banana Beach.

Banana Beach is also one of the best beaches in Phuket that you shouldn’t miss! It is a corner of Koh Hey in Thai or Hey Island in English. The island has multiple beaches, but Banana Beach is located in the best corner of it. As I was referring to Banana Beach as the best beach might sound unbelievable, but it is true. Everything that you dream about your ideal beach is all here – consisting of clear blue water with a great sunrise and sunset scenic view, nice silky sand, and standing palm trees. Enjoying water sports and activities or spending a relaxed time by the beach in Phuket will be an unforgettable holiday.

If the Banana Beach scenery ticks your box, let’s explore available activities at the Beach. 

The outdoor lovers would be excited about this beach because it has plenty of water activities:

Going to the beautiful beach and blue sea, snorkeling is a must. You might wonder about requirements or any basics to go snorkeling; for the trip to Banana Beach, there is nothing to worry about since the workshop is provided for both children (age 4-12 years old) and adults. All you need is to be ready to explore wildlife and sea-living creatures! A fantastic experience awaits you!

Seeking some adrenaline rush activity? I would like to invite you to try a banana boat. Boarding on an inflatable recreation boat, being pulled by a jet ski against the wavy sea, and facing the sea wind and waves are the most fun group activities because you can join a ride together with your friends or family. If adventurous activities are your passion, riding a banana boat at Banana Beach will not disappoint you.

Having a nice sunny day at the beach, parasailing is not a bad idea. If you want to feel like a bird that can view Banana Beach from the above angle, this activity is an interesting option. At the same time, it accelerates your adrenaline from sailing in the air with a boat moving forward on the sea surface. I would love to try this once in my life and bet you want it too!

Sailing in a transparent kayak is another activity to be close to the sea. The kayak is a crystal clear material, so you can absolutely experience 360 degrees of nature including the sea beside and underneath you and a blue sky. I can also think of a romantic moment between you and your man or woman sailing together to cherish the best moment in the middle of the sea and life. With the fantastic sea view and the photogenic kayak, nothing can compare.

For enjoying multiple activities at a reasonable price, I recommend you get a Phuket Day Pass from TAGTHAi. All interesting and amusing activities have been waiting for you at Banana Beach. Just click on the link and your holiday will be much easier and worry-less.

Rather than going for the activities, are you planning to be chilled?

This Banana beach is also a nice choice for you to spend your quality time: renting an umbrella and a beach chair, sunbathing, sipping your favorite chilled drink, or reading a book beside the sea. It sounds like a perfect relaxed holiday. If you go with your family, your children will definitely love swimming and building sand castles.

How to go to Banana Beach? 

This beautiful beach is just 15 minutes away from Phuket by boat, and the transit is quite convenient. There are two options to choose including the private one and shared speed boats. Special for the weekend, private and shared catamarans are another choice. Then, you can plan your trip and jump on a speedboat straight to the beach from the airport. Another mindful option is to spend some days at the Phuket Old Town trying local food and learning about the people's lifestyle before departing to the beach. 

If Banana Beach has not yet fulfilled your trip to Phuket, there are other must-do activities like going to tourist attractions and having a relaxing massage. Check out Phuket Day Pass for access to tons of shops, restaurants, and massages!
