Laem Ka Beach, Phuket Overview

With shallow and calm waters, Laem Ka beach is regarded as one of the safest beaches of Phuket and is the only east-facing beach in the south of Phuket. Surrounded by a coconut plantation, this beach gives stunning views of nearby Koh Bon, Koh Lone, Coral Island and other surrounding islands. Relatively hard to spot, this beach's pristine and untouched setting makes it the perfect destination for a retrospective getaway.

The beach is 150-metre in length, has a rocky area at the south end and dilapidated building at the north end. After mid-day, the shadows of the surrounding trees make it an ideal picnic spot. One can spot a handful of people during the high season; it looks deserted during the low season.
