Surin Beach (Ao Surin) is on the west coast of Phuket, about 15 km north of Patong.

[edit] Understand

Surin Beach still has a small village atmosphere, but this is gradually changing as more and more major housing developments and hotel projects get underway. Accommodation is not cheap and the best prices are around 500 baht in the low season.

The beach itself is lined with tall casuarina trees and small Thai style restaurants. There is no nightlife to speak of, but there are many quality restaurants serving a variety of cuisines. Surin beach can become quite dangerous in the monsoon season due to its steeply sloping beach, and many unwary swimmers have lost their lives here; however this has not deterred the local surf enthusiasts and when the waves are right you'll see many Thais on surfboards.

Along the beach road there is a large array of restaurants offering from simple Thai stir fries to imported steaks, however, the specialty around is seafood. Most restaurants are local Thai restaurants which also serve simple international dishes. In the last few years there has been a new wave of redevelopment on the beach road resutling in some international standard restaurants.

• Places like The Beach House attract families and couples alike, serving Thai and European dishes focused on seafood under a huge tatched roof.

• The luxurious Catch Beach Club caters to the high class market featuring live entertainment every night of the week. There are currently a few more restaurants under construction. Most restaurants have bathrooms and showers that guests can use after having been on the beach.

• Manathai Resort opposite the beach is a delightful, modern hotel with spacious rooms and excellent stylish communal areas with cool furnishings and high ceilings. Don't expect change from 4,000 baht per night though!
