The second-largest resort town on the island next to Chaweng, Lamai Beach is a visually stunning treat -with its fine and powdery soft sands, swaying palms and a long stretch of shallow waters to enjoy fun water sports and plenty of swimming. A plus point of Lamai Beach is that it is far less crowded and quieter compared to its counterpart, Chaweng beach. Nevertheless, it doesn't fail to offer visitors plenty of shopping, dining and accommodation options to choose from. Lamai Beach often tends to attract older travellers and family groups.
