Phuket Kata Noi: True Escape To Paradise

#beachcheck There are two Kata Beaches on Phuket Island — Kata Yai and Kata Noi, as a rocky outcrop divides the bay into two unequal parts. The sparsely populated Kata Noi beach (the word "noi" means "small") is covered with fine sand crunching underfoot. The place is ideal for those who dream of a secluded vacation away from resort entertainment and intrusive merchants. Clear water on clear days acquires a bright turquoise hue, and in cloudy weather the color changes to emerald and dark indigo. The crescent-shaped beach area stretches 700 m in length, and the width depends on the tides, averaging 40-50 m. The entrance to the sea is gentle, the depth increases gradually. The bottom is sandy, without rocks, shells and algae. Families with children and people who cannot swim should be careful: despite the shallow water, a high wave with a powerful shock force may suddenly come. Rip currents pose no less a threat. Warnings are relevant during the monsoon season, which usually lasts from May to October—November. At this time, surfers come to Kata Noi, and red flags on the coast warn of the danger of swimming. The territory is regularly cleaned of garbage by hotel staff and cleaning services, so Kata Noi beach has gained fame as the cleanest in Phuket. Surfing equipment rental is available all year round. There is no natural shade from the trees on the shore. A small shady area hides on the south side of the bay next to a pile of boulders. By the way, boulders serve as natural breakwaters, so there is almost always calm here. There are coral reefs in this part of the water area, which will delight snorkeling enthusiasts. To protect from the sun, you can rent a set of 2 sun beds and an umbrella for 200 THB. Thrifty tourists buy a folding umbrella and a mat in the store, or they sit on towels. On the street along the shore there are shops 7/11 and Family Mart, cafes, massage parlors, fruit stalls. Magnificent landscapes, a peaceful atmosphere and fantastic sunsets when the sun's disk plunges into the Andaman Sea are guaranteed.
