back to top Chalok Baan Kao Bay

Third largest beach, located on the southern coast facing Phangan and Samui.

Much quieter than Sairee, but offers a similar variety of accommodation, eateries and nightlife. Along with its many viewpoints, it is beautifully framed by Taa Toh lagoon to the east and Saan Jao beach to the west.

A rock formation at cape Taa Toh resembles a sitting Buddha, best to be seen from the opposite beach.
