Phuket's busiest beach, a three-kilometre bay on the island's west coast that becomes a beginner surf spot in the south-west monsoon, from May to October. Soft waves break over sand along the bay, usually small and often ruffled by the onshore monsoon wind; easterly winds are offshore, and early mornings are cleanest. Board rental and lessons line the beach. From November to April it is mostly flat.
