Travel to Kata Beach
A few minutes south of Karon Beach is the pleasant area of Kata; a beautiful bay where hotels overlook the white powdery sands and blue waters from the nearby hill. An ideal holiday destination for families and couples, Kata Beach holidays provide an alternative area to the busier Patong. The palm lined beach is the kind of tropical retreat that most people dream of. Relax on unspoilt beaches, dine on exotic Thai cuisine or join the surfers riding the impressive breaks; anything is possible in Kata Beach.
Kata Beach’s main accommodation hub is located in the southern end, a short distance from the waterfront in the hills that overlook the ocean. While they may be a little further from the beach, many of these resorts and hotels offer unrivalled panoramic views of the glittering sea. For sand lovers a Kata Beach holiday is perfect, there are still a scattering of beachside resorts that are seconds from the water. The hotels positioned on the hilltops are surrounded by luscious greenery and manicured gardens; the perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the town.
