Haad Sivalai - all beaches

This is the top beach on the island, with crystal clear water and pristine white sand. However, low tides can be a common occurrence. Nevertheless, the beach remains stunning despite this.

We are completely taken aback to witness the extensive construction taking place on this island. It's truly disheartening to see such development occurring here. Shouldn't this place be designated as a national park? Why couldn't they just maintain the modest bamboo tables instead of constructing a concrete pathway on the beach? It seems like they are preparing for a wave of mass tourism that won't prioritize the preservation of nature. It makes us wonder who is benefiting from this construction. Additionally, there are certain areas on the beach where it is advisable to wear shoes to avoid stepping on sharp debris from the construction site.

This is a great beach to visit, especially during low tide when it's perfect for swimming. There are two restaurants on the beach that offer tasty food and drinks at reasonable prices. You may even encounter some friendly dogs while you're there! The sunsets are particularly stunning, and we spent three days enjoying them in 2022. While it was busier than Pearl Beach, there were still only around 10 people there during the day and 40 Thai tourists for the sunset.

We didn't stay overnight, but we specifically visited for the beach. Both this beach and its smaller counterpart are the finest ones on the island. The simple restaurant serves basic dishes, and while the staff may be a bit slow, they are incredibly helpful and friendly. This may not be immediately apparent at first glance.

This beach is absolutely stunning and offers a sense of tranquility, with a fantastic vantage point from above and a few short hikes through the lush jungle.

While trekking through the lush Koh Mook Jungle, we stumbled upon a tranquil and serene beach. However, it is important to keep in mind that due to its remote location, there may be an abundance of litter scattered along the shore.
