The Secret Beach

Popular Beach in Koh Phangan
|
Part of Secret Beach Bungalows, 'The Secret Beach' is one of Koh Phangan's most beautiful beaches and hides on the west coast between Haad Yao and Haad Chao Phao beaches. Mostly known as Haad Son beach, this 150-metre sand strip is indeed situated under a steep promontory. Nestled in a hidden bay, surrounded by palm trees it has a feeling of secret beach.
Today it is a secret which is now quite widely known and, as a result of this and its limited size, the beach gets a little crowded during the high season and even popular on low season sunny days. |
