SAIREE BEACH
- ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW AND THINGS TO DO -
Sairee Beach is the most popular area in Koh Tao for many reasons. It’s located in the Northern part of the island, just one kilometre away from Mae Haad Pier, easy to reach both on foot or by bike.

Whether you are a party lover or looking for a nice beach to relax on, Sairee is the place to be. You won’t be disappointed by its charm and the beautiful places around.
WHY YOU SHOULD GO TO SAIREE
Everybody who wants to go to Koh Tao should spend some time in Sairee Beach. The Turtle Island is quite small, so everything is easily reachable by bike, but Sairee is probably the place you shouldn’t miss and the most famous one on the island. Why? Probably because of its many pubs and bars around the beach, also the fire shows or the charm you will feel. All this combination makes Sairee Beach a must in your trip to Thailand. Here you will find what to do in this place and the best way to make the most out of the place.
Although there are many bars, as in most areas of Koh Tao the main attraction within Sairee is the beach. It’s the longest beach on the island, and the quality of the clear water and the soft sand make it special. What’s more, you can easily find places that host BBQs and provide a nice cold beer by the shore.

WHY BOOK ACCOMMODATION AT SAIREE?
If you are looking to spend some nights out, it’s better to stay close to the pubs. With pub crawls and ladyboy shows every other day, it’s guaranteed that you’ll spend at least more than one evening out until sunrise, something a party lover cannot miss. However, if you are looking for something quieter, there are also hostels located away from the noise but central to the main road in Sairee.
If you’re worried about sleepless nights, there’s no need to be concerned as most places in Koh Tao close around 2.30am. Being a diving island, bars are aware that people need to rest so they can fully enjoy their underwater experience the next day. If you are the type to try new things, many diving resorts in Sairee offer diving courses, all levels included. Whether you want to explore the ocean, relax on the beach or grab a few cocktails at happy hour, Sairee is the place for you.
