Sanyang Beach
Sanyang (Paradise Beach)
One of the most popular beaches on the southern coast, where palm trees, fishing boats, and beach bars come together in a relaxed 'paradise beach.'
Sanyang lies about 35 km south of the resort area. Its long, open coastline has, in the northern section, Paradise Beach, with a few simple beach bars and grilled fish stalls. It is busy on weekends with locals and expatriate residents, but quiet on weekdays. The southern section has a fishing village harbor where you can watch the boats return. The water is suitable for swimming, but the waves are strong, so take care. You can go by taxi or hire a car, and it can be combined with Tanji Fishing Village and Tanji Bird Reserve as a day trip along the south coast.
