Located on Koh Hey near Phuket, the beach is renowned for its white sand, crystal-clear water, and snorkeling.
It is just a 15-minute boat ride from Phuket and offers activities such as snorkeling, diving, and parasailing.
The most ideal time to visit the beach is between November and April, when the waters are typically calm.
