- Trivia
- Hat Nai Yang is the closest beach to Phuket International Airport.
Although Hat Nai Yang isn't the prettiest strip of sand in Phuket, it is quiet and appeals to the more discerning type of traveler. The beach is shaded by ironwood trees, which also help to buffer the sound from planes taking off and landing, while one or two makeshift bars help to liven things up at night.
There is nothing in the way of hedonistic nightlife and girlie bars if that's your thing and shopping is also non-existent. You should rent a scooter to have a look around although getting to and from the airport by taxi or tuk-tuk (motorized rickshaw) is not a problem.
Travel to Hat Nai Yang - Getting There
Being the closest beach to the airport, Hat Nai Yang is accessible within minutes via taxi or hire car via Route 4031 (south) once you step off the plane. Flights come into Phuket from all over and Phuket Town, the main center on Phuket, is about 40 minutes away by taxi.
