Facilities at Ya Nui Beach

You can hire snorkelling gear on Ya Nui Beach. The northern part of this 300-metre-long beach is good for swimming. Many people hire a kayak and paddle out to Koh Man, where snorkelling conditions are even better. If there is a bit of a swell, bodyboarding is popular at the beach's northern end. Beach massage is available at reasonable prices.

Ya Nui is fairly busy in high season, with vendors selling merchandise such as textiles, toys, fresh fruit, snacks, and souvenirs. There are a couple of restaurants on the other side of the beach road, with several more shops and eateries around 500 metres down the road towards Rawai.
