Kayaking at Yanui Beach

🕰️ Operating Hours

🏖️ Atmosphere & Highlights
Yanui Beach is a small, serene beach located between Promthep Cape and Nai Harn Beach. The water is crystal clear and very calm, making it perfect for kayaking 🛶.

What’s special is that just a short paddle from the shore, you’ll find a “small island in the water” (Koh Man Nok), which you can kayak around. The views are stunning, with turquoise-green water and visible coral reefs 💙. The area is not too crowded, and with the right wind conditions, kayaking is smooth and enjoyable, suitable for both beginners and experienced kayakers.
