Sangchai Beach

Hidden Cove · Rawai, Phuket

Quiet beachUnspoiltSnorkellingBeach bar

Small 190-meter cove nestled between Rawai and Promthep, overlooked by most visitors who pass by without noticing it.

Sangchai hides at the end of a narrow path under the trees, at the far south of the island. The water entry is gentle and the sea is generally calm, making it an option for families. Two small beach bars offer drinks and paddleboard rental, and a local restaurant serves simple Thai cuisine at low prices. The left side of the beach offers decent snorkeling with reef fish.

Our local tip

Come at high tide, when water covers the rocks, and wear water shoes: there are sea urchins near the rocks.
