Kata Noi Beach Phuket

When you are looking at the Kata Noi Beach Phuket map, you will see that it is one of the smaller beaches, only about a half mile long. The views from Kata Noi Beach are what make it a popular location, since it features lush tropical jungles, golden sands, mountain range views and crystal, clear shallow water. The south end of the beach is popular for snorkeling because there are rock outcroppings that host marine life and coral reefs. While the area is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, the beach features coconut palms for shade, not far from the water and the sun loungers.

Kata Noi Beach is a small beach that usually features a nightly volleyball game that's open to anybody and surfers love the fast waves during the May to October stormy season since they are normally off the northern headland along this time of year. If you look on the Kata Noi Beach Phuket map, you'll see that it doesn't feature too many Kata Noi Beach hotels, restaurants or bars, but there are enough to make fun vacation or holiday plans. In fact there are a couple luxurious resorts between Kata Beach and Kata Noi Beach that are popular choices.

Many people might look at the other beaches like Kata Beach, Patong Beach or Karon Beach for a livelier kind of getaway that includes the nightlife, but there are some great Thai and International restaurants on your way down the dead end road into Kata Noi. There are food vendors and beach vendors that sell wares, including sandwiches and pizza, in case you work up an appetite. Since Kata Noi Beach is just south of Kata Beach on the Phuket map, many people just make the short jaunt up there for a wider selection of eateries, if they need to, when it comes time for dinner.

If you look on the Phuket map, you will see that it is just a short distance down the road and just a few bays over from Kata Bay or Patong Bay. For this reason, some people like to visit the other areas, but prefer the seclusion of Kata Noi Beach in the off season. During season, it is quite popular and can become crowded, so you need to get there early if you hope to get a sun lounger. The water can be pretty shallow in the off season, but in season, parking and beach space are in high demand. For those that want to take advantage of some of the water sports, it doesn't seem to make much difference.

Like some of the other beach areas on the Phuket map, Kata Noi features parasailing, Jet Ski rentals and the speedboats that pull inflatables. Snorkeling is popular and surf board rentals are everywhere. When you are looking for a small beach location, Kata Noi Beach Phuket is a top choice.
