Trisara Beach

A "hidden" beach for a romantic honeymoon or wedding.

Trisara Beach is a small beach in beautiful natural surroundings. The beach is just 175 meters long (600 feet), and at both ends, there are cliffs and trees. Behind the beach, there are a number of palm trees and other trees.

The sand is not the best on Phuket, but it is certainly not the worst either - it is in the top half in Phuket. While the sand on Phuket and elsewhere in Thailand is often yellowish and somewhat coarse, the sand here is finer with a more whitish colour. Trisara Beach is a decent beach, although there are some stones in the water at low tide.

The best part is that you can have the beach all for yourself - with one big caveat.

The photos in this article are from the high season. While the hidden Banana Beach just north of Trisara Beach was full of people this sunny day, there were only two people at Trisara Beach. The reason for this – and the big caveat – is that Trisara beach is a "private beach".

Actually, there are no private beaches in Thailand; however, the land behind Trisara Beach belongs to the very exclusive Trisara Phuket Villas & Residences; thus, you will have to stay at the hotel to get access to the beach or you have to arrive from the sea.

Staying at the hotel is not cheap, and it is certainly not for the kind of plastic this writer is swinging. The prices start at around 27,000 baht a night, which is equivalent to 27000 baht.

Perfect for a honeymoon

People from the middle class may choose to stay here in a junior suite for a once in a lifetime honeymoon when money is not as much an object as normal. However, if you want to stay in a villa with a private infinity pool, a sea view and plenty of bedrooms, you had better be equipped with very fit plastic as you then can add a zero at the end of the price above.

If one of your forefathers started a successful brewery, invented the Lego building blocks, or if you are a rock star of the looking for peace and tranquillity kind rather than the smashing room kind, this may very well be the place for your tropical holiday or for a romantic wedding in tropical settings.

I have not yet written about all of the beaches; thus, there are a few inactive links on the list. Please be patient, I will get to them. The list is in geographical order, starting at the north side of Phuket, then down the west side and finally up the east side.
