Karon Beach Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Karon Beach is located on the west coast of Phuket, south of Patong and north of Kata. Karon and these two beaches are known as the three major beaches of Phuket. Compared to Patong Beach, the coastline here is longer and wider, the water is clearer, the beach is softer, and there are fewer tourists. On this coastline of nearly 4 km, you can enjoy a view of the sea while walking. The location is lovely. The beach provides a beautiful view of the sea, but it has large waves, so be careful when swimming.

Watching the sunset at Karon Beach, feeling the tranquility and beautyToday, I finally came to Karon Beach. I heard that the sunset here is particularly beautiful, so I have been looking forward to it. Unlike Patong Beach, the atmosphere here is quieter, like a gentle girl. As the sun slowly sinks into the sea, the sky gradually dyes a layer of orange, and the waves gently slap the beach, as if whispering to me. At this moment, I feel that my soul has been purified, and all the troubles have been blown away by the sea breeze. The sun has completely fallen into the horizon, and the sky is gradually darkening. I know it's time to leave. But my heart is full of satisfaction and gratitude, because this sunset is really too beautiful, making me feel the magic of nature. Next time I come to Karon Beach, I will definitely choose to watch the sunset quietly here.marina_nocturne_944
Thai food in PhuketBai Toey is a small restaurant on a lovely little street in Karon beach serving traditional Thai food. Most of the restaurant is outside and covered with lots of fans to keep you cool. The staff are very attentive and the seafood in the restaurant was my personal favourite. Phad Thai was also another popular dish which I would recommend. They also have free wifi along with special deals on the alcohol drinks #foodMarty O’Brien8
Nice Thai food in PhuketAlong the resort of Karon Beach there is a small street that has a few restaurants on. Butterfly Bistro is one of those restaurants that has a mix of Thai food along with some international dishes too. The interior of the restaurant is very big, with wooden structures and fake motorbikes, with very welcoming staff. I would personally recommend any of the seafood dishes as they were the nicest ones that I tried. There is also free wifi in the restaurantMarty O’Brien11

Karon Beach, Phuket 🏖️#beachvacation Karon Beach is situated on the western coast of Phuket and is a nice resort that is not as busy as some of the other resorts in Phuket. To get there, it is best to fly to Phuket International airport, which is about 1 by car and has many flights to other destinations in Thailand and Asia. On the side of the beach there are many bars and restaurants that offer different types of cuisine and there are also some smaller bars on the beach itself. We stayed at a hotel that is a 2 minute walk from the beach which was fine because the beach is very accessible. The beach is also clean with lots of safety warnings as well as opportunities to do some water sports too #mytripvlogMarty O’Brien8

Karon Beach#exploreasia Karon Beach is located at the West Coast of Phuket Island. The beach is a popular destination for tourists, basically this beach is quieter than the neighbouring Patong. We like the quiet and peaceful environment here in the Karon Beach. This is a lovely place to walk on during sunset, away from the crowded and noisy beaches in Phuket, suitable for the couple and family travelling.BRps17

Zippy Day Club 😎The check-in point at Karon area is absolutely adorable. It's a combination of a beach club, bar, and café. The décor is designed in a pink style that resembles "My Ami" with plenty of photo opportunities 💖💗💕✨ Here, they serve food and drinks, including appetizers, main dishes, cocktails, and mocktails. Currently, they have a Happy Hour promotion. I highly recommend ordering the Sex on the Beach 🍹🍒 and Seafood Pizza 🍕, which are delightful and located on the beautiful Phra Ram VIII Road 😋 Additionally, on Saturdays and Sundays, there are DJs playing music by the lakeside 🎶 ⏰ Open from 12:00 pm - 9:00 pm (Closed on Tuesdays) 📍 Karon, Phuket #TravelPhuket #BeachClub #CaféMustVisitzorahsky23

Karon Beach 🏖 Phuket, ThailandNot the best choice, there is nothing, just nothing, only ocean and beach, and as locals said it's not safe to swim there. so, I don't suggest to go there🤷🏻♀️but if you go you can take some pictures, like me 😁#gooutside #beachlife #summervacation #thailand #phuketNene_inChina8

Quiet and calmLovely quiet stretch of beach. Lots of sun loungers available or you can just lay wherever you like. Water is swimmable. It's nice to walk and can go for around 30 minutes end to end. Several little coffeeshops and restaurants just around the corner. You can surf here, either bring your own board or you can rent. Can get classes too. It's also dog friendly. #thailand #staycation #staycations #phuket #beachJoe041210

Yeah very nice place and I love Karon Beach (Phuket Thailand 🇹🇭) Been there so many times.
A lovely large beach great for swimming, surfing and water activities. A great day out with lovely atmosphere and local food places. Recommended as a relaxing spot to unwind!
Phuket’s Karon Beach is its second-largest beach with a three-kilometre length. The whole beach is open to the public, unlike some others where certain parts can only be accessed by guests at resorts occupying that stretch. The beach has pristine sands and blue waters, making it a very photogenic location. Its larger size helps in accommodating larger crowds without the beach seeming too busy. Karon Beach is about 20 kilometres from Phuket Town, and 8 kilometres from Patong Beach. In fact, Karon is situated right between the two busiest beaches, Kata Beach and Patong Beach.
Perfect beach location between Patong and Kata. We had there a wonderful time. Cool vibe, not so busy and noisu like Patong.
🏖️🌊 Karon Beach stole my heart! The crystal-clear waters and soft sandy shores were pure paradise. Perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and unforgettable beach moments. 🌴☀️ #KaronBeach #BeachBliss
Here's to new heights, new adventures, and a year filled with breathtaking moments. Happy New Year from Karon Beach, Phuket!
Karon Beach in Phuket, Thailand, is a tropical paradise that stretches along the Andaman Sea. With its soft white sands and clear blue waters, it offers a serene escape. Embrace the laid-back atmosphere, indulge in water activities, and witness breathtaking sunsets. Karon Beach is a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, making it a sought-after destination for beach enthusiasts.
Night walk at Karon beach, it is quieter than Patong beach, suitable for families and couples.
