Sri Thanu – Sedate Sunset-Facing Bay

sri thanu
Sri Thanu, Koh Phangan [by mindscapes]
Just a few kilometres south of Haad Yao on Koh Phangan’s western coastal road is Sri Thanu, a more sedate sunset-facing beach. The sand here is typical of this side of the island in that it’s light, white and squeaky under foot!

You can get here on bike or songthaew from Thong Sala or any of the other beaches on the island fairly easily as it’s served by a decent road. There aren’t as many resorts or bungalows here as you’ll find on the more mainstream beaches but it’s charming and preferred by those who like things that little bit more relaxed.

If you’re into Yoga or Pilates you could participate in these activities here as the popular classes are held on Sri Thanu beach (among others) with the backdrop of the ocean, deep blue skies and sunsets to enjoy while you’re exercising and keeping yourself toned.

Could you think of a nicer location for a work out..?! You’d be hard pushed.

Where to stay on Sri Thanu

You have the choice of staying along the main part of the beach or up on either side of the headlands and capes. Here are a couple of accommodation options.

sri thanuLoyfa Natural Resort
Located invitingly around the southern cape of Sri Thanu, Loyfa has a private beach and a pool to dip in if you don’t fancy the sea for whatever reason. Bungalows are dotted around the grounds and among the tress and come at various price levels so that all traveller’s budgets are catered for. Guests love the setting of this resort as well as the friendliness of its’ staff.. [read reviews]

Phangan Cove Resort
Located more centrally on the main part of Sri Thanu beach, Phangan Cove offers the usual variety of air-con and standard fan bungalows, giving guests a choice for their particular comfort level and budget requirements. There is car and bike hire available as well as free Wi-Fi in all rooms and there’s also a restaurant on site to keep you fed while you’re there.. [read reviews]
