Beaches On Ko Tao- Falling Under The Spell Of The Island Charm At Ko Tao

Even though the island of Ko Tao is rather small with an area of 21km2

, it receives a staggering number of 100,000 visitors per year. These visitors arrive at the nearest airports which are in Ko samui and Surat Thani which connects to other airports in major cities like Bangkok and then take a ferry to the island which journey can take from 3 hours to 6 hours depending from where you take the ferry first.

The stretch of beaches is amazing, each with its own culture and pace that seems made for the varying range of human emotion and interest. From the romantic seclusion offered at the crystal clear waters and deserted sandy beaches shaded by some cliffs at some areas to the much more popular and crowded stretch of beaches to the famous point of scuba diving, there is something for everyone and for all times of day and all kinds of mood.

The Sairee beach is a focus of attraction in Ko Tao with its cluster of residences, restaurants and pubs and clubs with a dense population of tourists dictating the culture and the nightlife as the beach creates spectacular sunsets that set the stage for the nocturnal events. Ao leuk is better known for being a superb place for snorkelling on both sides of its bay with boulder lined coasts while the lack of reef makes it the perfect place for a good swim. For a romantic seclusion or even for some superb shots to rave about with your camera, the Ao Thian Ok and neighbouring Haad Sai Daeng has a bevy of breath taking beaches with crystal clear waters playing with the powdery white sand which glows with the glance of the sunlight. The freedom beach as well as the Jansom Bay also offer amazing ambience for some soul searching or sea gazing or simply being the back drop for some romantic whisperings.

Residing at one of the renowned Koh Phangan resorts can itself be an unforgettable experience. Rasananda Koh Phangan Villa Resort & Spa unfolds with a timeless charm and elegance with its Thai inspired interior dcor appearing cosy against the tropical plantation groves that overlook these spectacular beaches. Anyone searching for a Koh Phangan hotels would do well to step into this elegant and peaceful residence that seems to have caught that infectious tranquillity of the sea and the gentle murmur of the tropical plants.
