Sometimes known as Banana Rock Beach, this 180-meter strip of sand is one of the most pristine spots in Phuket. Its remote location between Bang Tao and Nai Thon beaches, as well as a challenging path, makes it almost untouched by visitors. Banana Beach lies at the end of a rough trail down to the bottom of quite a steep hill, but the brief hardship of getting there is rewarded with a tranquil and unspoilt spot. Location: Cherngtalay, Thalang, Phuket 83110, Thailand
