Tide today

Knee-deep on the coconut. The water is going out: low tide at 20:47.

Today: low tide at 20:47, high tide at 12:26.

The tide here

At low tide the cove gets shallow: you have to go further out to swim, and coral and rocks show. Water shoes help.

Tide times for the week

About the beach

A small cove on the west coast between Chao Phao and Haad Yao: 100–250 metres of sand between rocks, with jungle behind. It goes by Secret Beach, but it stopped being a secret long ago: in season, especially from late morning, it is crowded.

On the rocks at the northern end are the decks of Koh Raham, Haad Son Resort's bar and restaurant, a popular place to see the sun go down. It sets into the sea all year round.

Getting there

About 9 km from Thong Sala: a turn off the main road between Chao Phao and Haad Yao. Scooters and cars stay at the top, scooters at the turn-off and cars along the main road; spaces are few and free. Then a short steep walk down, about three minutes.

Good to know

  • Snorkel off the rocks by Koh Raham: the fish keep to the stones, and you can get in straight from the deck
  • For room on the sand, come in the morning
