But like with all islands – it does have a few favorites. The kind of beaches to take your breath away.

To reconnect with nature and to stand in awe at the wonders of the world!

I am an island child forever connected to the sea…so writing this post gave me a great deal of joy too!

I do all the hard work for you, so all you need to worry about is what to pack for Thailand. Read more for the best beaches in Koh Phi Phi!

Best beaches in Koh Phi Phi – Long Beach

 About a 10-minute boat ride from Phi Phi Don lies a quiet sleepy stretch of sandy paradise known as Long Beach.

Here, you’ll find some of the cleanest waters in Phi Phi beaches. And a much-needed moment of peace and quiet away from it all.

On the beach itself, there are no sun loungers for rent, only deck chairs, and little amenities.

Long Beach has a rock popping out of the water called Shark Point! This is where visitors go to get a view of blacktip reef sharks which are abundant in the area.

Feel free to snorkel, dive, and explore! Take a packed lunch with you so you don’t have to go searching for food and water!

Loh Dalum Beach

Loh Dalum is beautiful. Located in the heart of Tonsai and almost entirely enclosed by limestone cliffs! Naturally, the views are to die for!

Shallow and warm water and no waves to be seen on this soft white sand beach!

Although it can get very busy, I spent quite a bit of time in Loh Dalum as my hotel was right on the edge of the water.

Being Cypriot and used to the madness of Ayia Napa beaches, I personally didn’t mind the crowds!

My fave spot: People-watching and daydreaming on my favorite swing.It makes for some great pictures too!

Best beaches in Koh Phi Phi – Phak Nam Bay

The ‘Relax Beach’  is among the most popular tourist places in Phi Phi Islands! Here, people enjoy the calm by lounging in the beach houses.

Beach bars along with diving and snorkeling spots are the main attractions here so expect some great food and water sports! Here, you’ll find a younger crowd and a chilled but lively vibe!

Check out more attractions in Phi Phi Island here

Nui Beach

At Nui Beach, you will find calm and shallow waters, a long stretch of sandy beach, and a general feeling of exclusivity. The beach is maintained by the Nui Bay Member Club.

Additionally, it boasts a plethora of amenities as well as water activities including scuba diving and kayaking.

You can have a pretty full day at Nui Beach and encounter tourists and locals alike. Good food, good crowd, good vibes!

Best beaches in Koh Phi Phi – Laem Tong Beach

A 1 km long beach on north-east Phi Phi Don is accessible only by boat.

The sound of crashing waves and its peacefulness makes this beach worthy of my best beaches in Koh Phi Phi list.

Head to Laem Tong for a day of secluded beauty and quiet.

Snorkel, dive, sunbathe, meditate, practice yoga, and just… relax! Taxi boats are easy to find and inexpensive too.

Responsible tourism – Save the planet

Phi Phi islands, and the rest of Thailand, are as close to paradise as you will see.

Sadly, they are dying – at the hands of irresponsible tourism.

Plastic waste, sea pollution and the destroyed coral reefs are killing the island’s treasures.

The situation is so tragic, that Maya Bay (From the film ”The Beach”) has been shut off entirely to the public and who knows what will follow? I would like to use my platform to do good.

We- the simple travelers – have a huge responsibility to change the way we travel. Our planet – and its many treasures – is dying and it is begging for our help! My Guide to Responsible tourism is a simple guide to help you take the first steps to travel green!

The Earth is what we all have in common

The following Koh Samui Beach Clubs come from some of the best hotels on the island too. Below, i am linking my personal recommendations so you can use booking.com to get to them straight away! If you want to do your own searching for hotels, use the link below

Search for your own hotels

Koh Samui Beach Clubs – Coast Beach Bar

The king of all Beach clubs and luxury hotels has got to the stunning Coast Beach Club of the Centara Grand Beach Resort – on Chaweng Beach.

  Located in the heart of Chaweng, this 5* beauty of a hotel just made my heart sing.

It was one of the first places I visited in Chaweng, and I spent my remaining days stubbornly trying to top it- without success. Think crystal clear blue waters, long sandy golden beach, and the absolute best Mojito in the whole of Thailand. Everything is spot on- extensive wine list, filtered ice, great food, free wi-fi and gorgeous circular sun loungers for two.  It’s on the pricier side but I cannot recommend enough!

Tip

If your #budget can stretch that far- book to stay at the hotel immediately- the grounds are to die for! Search for it here! If not, do like us and visit its beach club for the day. You can access all pool areas of the hotel as long as you are either a hotel guest or a guest of the Coast Beach Club.

$$$ for a full day including drinks and food.

Price info for sun loungers: Wooden style family beds 3.000 baht min spend and the rounded beds for two are 2000 baht min spend. The puffs below are cheaper.

Ocean Beach Club – of the Beach Republic Resort

 Aka a perfect #instagoals beach club on Lamai Beach. The Beach Republic is a vibrant, colorful and luxurious beach bar. It comes with an added great menu for food and drinks and various options for loungers. (all rented for 1000 baht per person and up) . #instagoals for sure.

I love this venue for its affordable luxury, the chilled out views of Lamai Beach, and I personally found the red decor to be so striking against the clear blue sea and the beautiful palm trees.

Book a hotel stay

$$ including drinks and food  

 Koh Samui Beach Clubs – Samui Paradise Beach Resort and spa – Chaweng.

A far more modest beach club, with cheaper prices all around. At Samui Paradise, both the pool and surrounding grounds are gorgeous and the food was great! The property is surrounded by luscious green – giving it a tropical feel, it really is beautiful.

Book a hotel stay

$$ for a full day including drinks and food  

The W Koh Samui – and its Beach bar- Woobar.

The W 5* Resort/ beach club has THE most breathtaking views I have seen anywhere in the world. All I’m going to say is its got sofas built inside an infinity pool that blends right into the ocean. If you love luxury, the Woobar is a definite must! 

$$$ for a full day including drinks and food.

THB 1,000 entry fee for adult THB 500 for children aged 6-12 years old between 11 AM-6 PM.

Fees are fully redeemable against all beverage and food purchased in WOOBAR® or The Kitchen Table. The bar is open from 11 am to 12 pm.  

Hotel Information: W Koh Samui luxury resort offers 74 private pool villas and is located between Maenam and Bo Phut in Koh Samui. It has the finest and most pristine beach location in Thailand. If you have the budget, nothing will match the elegance and luxury of the W Koh Samui resort. Search for it here!

Koh Samui Beach Clubs – Nikki Beach Koh Samui – 5* hotel and super luxurious beach club

Arguably one of the most instagrammable venues in Koh Samui! Nikki Beach is notorious for its wild beach and pool parties full of young partygoers and international DJs.  It is an absolute must if you are looking to mingle and live the high life! Expect to see celebrities! 

Love it? I don’t blame you! Book a hotel stay

Panormos Beach – Principote Beach Club

On the northwest part of Mykonos, lies the lovely bay of Panormos Beach. Panormos is a shallow beach, protected from the winds making it the perfect spot for swimming and relaxing.

It is also home to the utterly incredible Principote Beach Club – my favorite in Mykonos by far.

Neutral tones and the abundance of white throughout the entire beach club are so calming to the eye and every single detail is perfect.

The incredible ambiance and large and comfortable sunbeds are exhuming understated luxury!

The staff was by far the best I encountered on the island, even keeping an eye on our possessions while we swam in the sea or when we were having lunch upstairs.

Spectacular coffee, ice-cold champagne, and impressive pina Coladas kept us busy throughout the day and the music fitted the atmosphere perfectly.

Additionally, the lunch was to die for! It was high dining that meets Greek tradition completed yet again with impeccable service.

Top contender of Mykonos Beaches? check. Favorite beach club? check.

If you go anywhere in Mykonos, it has got to be Principote Beach Club.

Principote Prices: We paid  €150 for two sunbeds and an umbrella. Our Lunch was around  €260, and the drinks by our sunbeds were around €140. In total, we paid around €500 for two people, and we spent the entire day there.

We could have paid less if we didn’t go all out – with champagne, cocktails, and multiple dishes during lunch!

Mykonos Beaches- Ornos Beach/ Pasaji Beach Club

The nested beach of Ornos is another fabulous Mykonos Beaches option as it is home to the beautiful Pasaji Beach Club.

Here you will find luxury, comfort, and convenience and one of the best shishas in Mykonos.

This is a slightly more chilled beach, where you will happily spend a lazy day under the sun followed by a great and varied lunch if you choose to eat at the restaurant.

Beautiful ambiance in neutral and black tones set the tone at Pasaji Beach Club making Ornos Beach a top Mykonos Beaches contender.

Pasaji Beach Club Prices:  € 50 for two sunbeds and an umbrella. Lunch, shisha, coffee, and 2 cocktails were € 250.

The food was fantastic, especially the burgers and the sushi platters!

Ftelia Beach – Ftelia Beach Club

Ftelia Beach is a peaceful, laid-back beach so unpretentious you almost feel like you left Mykonos and ended up in gorgeous Milos Island.

This beach is on the Northern part of Mykonos, and it’s almost always windy therefore it is a windsurfers paradise.

The atmosphere here is more laid back, although in true Mykonos style, the service is good and the food is exceptional!

If you don’t mind a little wind, you will love everything Ftelia Beach Club has to offer!

Ftelia Beach Club Prices:  € 80 for a large cabana for two. Lunch and cocktails were €150

Tip: Located also in Ftelia Beach is the luxurious and fun Alemagkou Beach Club.

I didn’t have time to visit it myself but have heard great things from friends, so I am attaching the details here 🙂

Mykonos Beaches – Skorpios

Now I struggled with whether to include this. I don’t find the beach in Scorpios to be anything special.

The beach club, however, is a whole different story!

Beautifully decorated, Skorpios offers elegance and finesse.

The luxurious cabanas offer privacy and relaxation and the restaurant- although expensive- is one of the best on the island.

The real fun begins later on in the day at around 6:30 with the ”sunset rituals” – a party that should not be missed!

Scorpios is an absolute legend in Mykonos, and every celebrity always stops by Scorpios!

Cavo Tagoo

Cavo Tagoo is not a beach or a beach club, it is, in fact, a hotel.

However, I really feel like this deserves a place, and let me explain why.

The infinity pool of Cavo Tagoo is probably the best in Mykonos, the service is luxurious, the crowd is full of finesse and the food and evening entertainment are top-notch!

The sunset views here deserve a special mention too!

For those days when you simply don’t want to leave your hotel (if you are staying there) or want the convenience of a hotel, Cavo Tagoo is the place to be.

My time at Villa Oniro

I spent 6 heavenly days in the incredible Villa Oniro in Protaras. My stay was incredible, both in terms of luxury, peacefulness, and convenience! I did little else than swimming, relaxing in the jacuzzi and relaxing in the outdoors.

Whether you are a family or a group of friends, Villa Oniro will provide the perfect holiday getaway in gorgeous yet busy Protaras. And with so many accommodations being below average, I am ecstatic to be able to recommend such a luxurious and gorgeous Villa.
