There are two islands close to Phuket’s east coast at Cape Panwa. The larger island is, “Koh Tapao Yai” and the smaller, “Koh Tapao Noi.” There are no real facilities on these islands, and they are not especially beautiful. Visitors to the Koh Tapao Yai Island usually come for a convenient trip from Phuket just to get away for a couple hours on the beach which is not usually crowded at all.
Poor, a lot of mud mixed with the sand. Beach is very small (thin).
A lot of sand and numerous beaches around the island. The beaches amount to not much more than just patches of dirty sand. Not very scenic. Not worth a stop.
None
Relax on a towel on the beach and swim.
No
High fines possible.
Many rocks and very few people. No real reason to stop here.
