Karon Beach,
hotels and accommodation, Phuket Thailand
(20
& 17 km from town) The second
largest of Phuket's tourist beaches.
Large resort complexes line the road
behind of the shoreline, but the long,
broad beach itself has no development.
The sand is very white, and squeaks
audibly when walked upon. The southern
point has a fine coral reef stretching
toward Kata and Bu Island.
Restaurants, bars, tour companies
and other non-hotel businesses are
at the north end, near the traffic
circle, and at the south end, on the
little road connecting the back road
with the beach road. The narrow road
between Kata and Karon has a number
of small businesses as well as the
Dino Park Mini Golf facillity. Karon
is the most up-scale of Phuket's beaches.
There is a regular daytime bus service
to and from Phuket Town.
