It is one of the widest, cleanest and most beautiful beaches that I have seen in Thailand. It is a very wide and clean beach, the sea water is beautiful blue and the beach sand is charming. There are wonderful sessions by the sea. You can spend a day here as restaurants and services are available. I recommend visiting this beach, especially for families and groups to enjoy."
