Ao Noi

Ao Noi is a beach in Phang Nga Bay featuring white sand and scattered palm trees facing the Gulf of Thailand. The shoreline extends gently into the water, with shallow areas close to shore and deeper waters further out.

The area has been home to fishing families for generations, who relied on traditional methods for catching and processing fish. These practices have persisted over decades and continue to shape community life today.

The beach serves as a gathering place where local fishermen work on their nets and maintain their boats as part of daily life. You can watch these maritime activities and learn about how people here depend on the sea.

Visit during November through April when the weather is driest and ferry services are most frequent. Bring water and sun protection since shade is limited and the sun is quite intense.

The waters surrounding the beach are home to diverse coral formations that resemble an underwater garden when viewed from below. Snorkelers can explore different coral species and the fish that inhabit them here.
