Surin Beach
Surin Beach
is situated on the west coast of Phuket island at the end
of Sri Sunthorn Rd., about 24 kms from Phuket Town. Take Route
402 until you reach the Two Heroines Statues, then turn left
for another 12 kms.
A
curving bay beneath the foothills on the north of Kamala and
bordering on a hillside, Surin Beach has a powdery white sand
beach but the precipitous incline means powerful surf, a treacherous
undertow and turbulent water, including huge waves. The beach
is not suitable for swimming or any water sports during the
rainy season.
The beach
is another not-to-be-missed spot for witnessing the brilliant
sunsets of Phuket.
Two of Phuket's
most luxurious resorts are located at the northern end of
the bay, where the well heeled can spend several hundred dollars
per night for a room, or up to several thousand dollars per
night for a private seaside villa. More reasonably priced
accommodations can be found at the southern end of the bay.
