Nai Harn Beach is another of the arguably most beautiful beaches in Phuket (there are a lot of contenders!), and it is located just a few minutes past Karon Viewpoint. This quiet seaside resort is known for its fine, soft sand and deep blue water. The water quality is excellent and great for swimming during the high season, but, like at other west coast beaches, the low season brings strong currents better for surfing and kitesurfing. Just behind the beach, there is a large, freshwater lagoon that is also used for paddleboarding. The local restaurants provide wonderful views of the sea, particularly at sunset. Nai Harn Beach is popular among locals and expats, but it usually isn’t overcrowded with tourists, making it a perfect place for a peaceful stop along your travels.
