Why go
Begin at Nai Yang, where the beach and national-park setting make an easy shared first stop. Continue through Sirinat’s coastal landscape before giving Mai Khao the longest walking window of the day. The open shore is exposed, so shade, heat and sea conditions matter more here than on an urban sightseeing route. Finish at Sarasin Bridge to understand Phuket’s land connection with Phang Nga. Keep the park and bridge as the interpretive anchors, and shorten beach time if midday heat or rain reduces the value of the coast.
