A magnificent, 8 kilometre long crescent shaped bay with pure white sand, fringed with casuarina trees, Bangtao is one of Phuket’s longest, least developed and most beautiful beaches.

Anchored at the north end by the luxury Laguna Resort, a complex of five star resort hotels integrated into one development, and at the south by the famous Chedi Resort and the ultra-exclusive Amanpuri Hotel, host to international celebrities, Bangtao Beach has truly earned its reputation as Phuket’s upscale playground.

Dry season swimming is excellent, and the steady yet gentle breeze has made Bangtao Beach a haven for sailboarders, playing host to several international competitions each year, including the annual Siam World Cup windsurfing championship.
