Many kilometers of deserted beach characterize
Maikhao Beach (Haad Mai Khao). There is little tourist
business. The water is fine for swimming during the
dry season; the rainy season brings big waves and strong
currents that are dangerous. This lonely beach is another
where sea turtles come to lay eggs. It is also home
to what the Thais call a sea cicada, which is a form
of marine life.
To get there, go to northern tip of Phuket; the beach
lies along the road's length.
