A very peaceful beach on Phuket's west coast, reminiscent of what the beaches were like 20 years ago. The fine sandy beach at Nai Thon is a great spot for those who want a quiet swim away from the crowds.

Immediately behind the beach are tall trees providing nice shady spots, an equally quiet village with some good value-for-money restaurants. At the north end of Nai Thon Beach, is the Pullman Phuket Arcadia Resort.

Located few miles south of the airport and about a 40-minute drive from Patong. En route, the road winds through hills, passes a number of beautiful sandy coves and continues on towards Bang Tao Beach.
