Bang Tao Beach
หาดบางเทา
A beach about 6 km long on the west coast, home to the Laguna resort complex and beach clubs, suited to a relaxed, resort-style stay.
Bang Tao is one of the longest beaches on Phuket's west coast. Its middle section, Laguna Phuket, was converted from a former tin mining area and houses several international hotels, including Banyan Tree and Dusit Thani. Boats can shuttle across the lagoon. The northern part has beach clubs such as Catch and Xana, while the southern section is more natural. Nearby, Boat Avenue and Porto de Phuket have restaurants and night markets. The wide beach is good for strolling and watching the sunset. In the rainy season the waves are big, so be cautious when entering the water.
