Phuket
A lovely protected strip of fine, golden west-coast sand fringed by jungle, 7km south of the airport and blissfully removed from Phuket's busy buzz. The swimming is good (except at the height of the monsoon) and Nai Thon's blazing fiery red sunsets are something to remember.
There are a few mostly midrange resorts and low-key restaurants across the road from the beach here.
