Haad Salad
หาดสลัด
A small bay on the northwest coast with clean sand, shallow calm water and coral reef. It is a good spot for snorkelling and watching the sunset.
Haad Salad, also known as Salad Beach, is about 500 metres long. Legend has it that the name comes from pirates who once traded here. Today it is a quiet bay lined with mid-range and upscale resorts. The water is clear, and near the rocks at either end you can snorkel, especially at low tide when the water is shallower. At sunset you can watch from a beach bar. Haad Salad is next to Mae Haad and Haad Yao, so you can ride a bike between them. It is about a 20-minute drive from Thong Sala.
