About
Краткие факты: Soft, powdery sand meets warm, shallow water where families paddle and colorful longtail boats bob just off shore. Nightlife spills from beachfront bars into open-air stalls, with over 40 restaurants and cafes lining the main strip so you can go from sunrise yoga to late-night satay in under twelve hours.
Основные моменты: Golden sunset throws neon silhouettes across the shallow reef, where low tide reveals tiny pools of glassy water filled with bright blue sea stars and kids scooping up to thirty shells in an hour. Night brings fire-dance performers, two to five jugglers spinning flaming batons as the scent of grilled squid and coconut oil drifts through the warm air, turning the beachfront into a glowing, cinematic scene.
Insider tips
- Wear reef-safe sunscreen, a wide-brim hat and a light cover-up because shade is limited on the sand.
- Shoot golden-hour photos from the palm-lined western stretch for silhouettes and colorful skies.
- Book snorkel or island boat trips through several beachfront operators and compare prices, ask about lifejackets and exact departure times.
- Bring cash in small denominations, skip overpriced beachfront chains and try roadside seafood stalls for better value.
