Magnificent Beaches
of Hat Yao and Hat Salat

Hat Yao and Hat Salat are the two beaches where the sand is more beautiful
and softer than other beaches on the west coast of Ko Pha-ngan. Hat Yao, in particular,
is 1.5 kilometers long, lined up with large resorts and small bungalows along the
beach where visitors can jog, play beach sports, and even lie in the sun. Outside the

beaches, from Hat Chao Phao to Hat Son, Hat Yao, Hat Salat, and Mae Hat, coral reefs
spread over a vast area. There are several good spots for scuba diving to view coral
reefs. This area is also a center for diving outfits and diving services for tourists wishing
to snorkel along coral reefs. Hat Yao is also one of the best spots to watch the sunset.
Every evening when the sky is clear, a number of tourists usually gather here to watch
the sun gradually disappear.
