All 8 beaches, ranked
No quiz needed — here's our full ranking. The finder above pulls from exactly this data.
1. Samae Beach
West coast · 9.1/10 · The best all-round swim on the island — clear water, real snorkeling, and a calmer crowd than Tawaen. 2. Tien Beach
South-west coast · 8.9/10 · The quiet beauty — scenic, low-key, and the one regulars name when no one's listening. 3. Tawaen Beach
North-east coast · 8.7/10 · The headline beach — biggest, busiest, and the easiest place to do everything in one day. 4. Nual Beach (Monkey Beach)
South coast · 8.3/10 · A small, pretty white-sand cove on the south — keep an eye on your snacks, the monkeys are nearby. 5. Thong Lang Beach
North-west coast · 7.9/10 · Secluded and undeveloped — come for the quiet, bring what you need. 6. Ta Yai Beach
North coast (near village) · 7.4/10 · The handy local beach near the village — easy to reach, not the prettiest. 7. Laem Tien Beach
East cape · 7.1/10 · A remote cape on the east — get-away-from-it-all quiet, low on services. 8. Sangwan Beach
North-central coast · 6.8/10 · A small, low-key strip — fine for a quiet pause, not a destination in itself.
