It is sad to see how anyone can damage nature with all this plastic… say no to bags, straws, reduce and reuse!!!

- Trixie70Mandurah, Australia374 contributionsThis was our local beach, as we were staying at Santhiya resort. Nice clean beach at our resort end but rubbish just beyond Mama's Seafood restaurant. The water clarity was not clear but it was nice to swim here.Written 12 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- sertravelsSaskatchewan12 contributionsWe arrived at this area via boat. First impression was great. Clean beach friendly staff activities were fun. Lunch had small variety.
We arrived at the lunch area and some of our party filled up at the first buffet line that they seen and were told that that area was just for the Chinese visitors and were not allowed to eat there that there was a line for the Russian and western ppl. This is the first time in my life that we felt segregated! The party that were were with was of mixed ethnicity so part of the group could eat from different areas of the buffet it was ridiculous.Written 19 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Markus ILappeenranta, Finland7 contributionsNice and quiet beach as not many western tourists come here. Just hope the people that do come would pick up their rubbish.
The road to the beach needs a bit of skill to make it all the way with a motorbike. Alternative option is to walk the last 0.5-1km.Written 10 January 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Charlie RBangkok, Thailand1 contributionThe viewpoint is next door to the Hillside resort. With four viewpoint decks to take breathtaking photos.
Also a jungle trail at the top and very clean walking trail. The land is for sale with 2 rai at 18m Thai baht. Perfect for luxury villas location. Near the new Anantara resort.Written 9 December 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Melanie CSurrey, UK60 contributionsThis little beach is tucked away down a dirt track but when you get there, wow!
Best when the tide is in otherwise the water goes out a long way and is pretty shallow but there are waves, the most stunning white sand and thr most turquoise water!

- Gabriela BBoca Raton, Florida6 contributionsMy boyfriend found this place on google maps and decided we should try it. It was one of our best experiences here in Thailand where we could just relax and create something. The owner is super nice, we really loved the whole experience we visited twice to make a small batik napkin and 3rd visit to buy something nice from her shop. I really recommend visiting this place when in Koh Yao Yai!Written 19 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
