Mai Khao Beach

A long, steep northern shoreline near Phuket airport, Mai Khao feels more open and exposed than the island’s compact southern bays and retains turtle-nesting significance.

Mai Khao Beach

Why go

Choose Mai Khao for scale, horizon and a quieter northern-coast mood. The beach’s steep profile and strong seasonal currents create a wilder visual character, while its documented turtle-nesting history adds meaningful conservation context to the broad sandy shore and surrounding coastal landscape.

What to look for

  • Long, open northern shoreline
  • Historic sea-turtle nesting beach
  • Distinctive steep beach profile

Useful to know

  • Do not swim during dangerous monsoon conditions; the province warns of very strong currents and a steep shore.
  • Multiple small roads branch from Thepkasattri Road toward the beach near the airport.
