it a nice small bay with sandy beach and clear water. It has a restaurant for food, and way over priced sunbeds for rent. Bring your beach towel as rental price for a sunbed are ridiculous, $50 for 1-bed! Also note to come early, due to the small size beach it will quickly get overcrowded by noon.

Simple peaceful, and lucky to have this as a back drop to Naiyang beach. It has many birds and casaurina trees provide shady to the beach goers, So glad the national parks have stopped the development above the Marriott.. encroaching on the park. I Have stayed at both sides of the sirinat. Maikhao and Naiyang.

Giving a one star cause the ticket is a scam and the beach and area all around has so much trash and debris. It's not a park with anything to see or do, it's just blocked from one point to another where they can try and get unknowing tourists to pay a fee. There are ways to enter and you can just go around near the beach. It's says 200 baht for foreigners and 40 baht for locals, but I never saw an...

Worth a visit as one can witness the coral cemetery, which is an unusual experience. When I visited the sea wasn’t accessible, but all the coral left me wonder what is underneath the sea. As a downside, unfortunately the park was littered and very little managed to sustain its natural value

Those tall Casuarina trees are something else entirely 💚 Feel-good atmosphere. There is also a sandbank to walk on. People come here for picnic or jogging along the road as the road has little traffic. An umbrella ☂️ will be very useful because there is nowhere to hide should the rain start unexpectedly (like it always does). I haven't seen any cafes or shops.

When is the best time to visit Sirinat National Park (Phuket, Thailand)?

From November to February, join guided turtle nesting tours at dusk. Avoid the rainy season (May–October) when trails may flood and beaches can be rough.
