A postcard mini-bay by Promthep

Yanui Beach, Phuket

Length: 0.15 kmSwim and snorkel Nov–Apr; summer wavesstay nearby from $18/night

Yanui is a tiny bay between Promthep Cape and the windmill viewpoint: a rock islet offshore, longtails on the sand, sunset colours — the most photographed 150 metres of the south.

There's snorkelling by the rocks, free parking across the road, a couple of cafes and SUP rentals. The beach is small and fills by midday in high season — come early morning or two hours before sunset.
