Mai Khao Beach Phuket, Thailand.
This pine-fringed stretch of sand is Phuket’s longest beach. Each year, from November through to February, giant sea turtles struggle ashore to lay their eggs here.
Location and travel to Mai Khao Beach Phuket, Thailand.
The road to god kasan. Through separate access to the airport straight to the Sarasin Bridge, fork left with signs to turn left to the white wooden beach 3.5 km to the beach is white wood.
'Mai Khao' means white wood in English and maybe this is a local joke because there are certainly no white trees along this beach! The sand is a little coarse, perhaps the coarsest in Phuket, but this is splendid isolation at its best and you can walk for kilometres without seeing anyone at all.
There is a sharp drop off into the Andaman Sea, making swimming dangerous from May to November. If you are a plane spotter, the beach just north of the airport offers great vantage points from which to spot the incoming air traffic.
