Bang Tao Bay

Bang Tao Bay is a large bay which is made up of three beaches:  Bang Tao Beach, Lay Phang Beach (pronounced like the "pong" in "ping pong"), and Layan Beach. 

The whole bay will take you at least an hour to walk its full length - usually more like 90 minutes.  It is a beautiful area - great for an early morning walk.  Look for the Brahminy Kites that soar off the beach front at sunrise and sunset.

The far northern end of the bay is called Layan Beach.  Soft white powder sand.  Largely undeveloped - but it is coming!  There is a small excellent restaurant and some chairs and umbrellas in this area.  This beach is about a 20 minute walk from the Laguna area.  During high season you will often find sand dollars on the beach.

The north central part of the beach (no one is exactly sure where the line is) is called Lay Phang Beach.  Roughly the beach front in the Banyan Tree Resort area.  This is the area where the beach shack restaurants begin to proliferate. From there south, it is impossible to go hungry!

Bang Tao Beach - is everything south of Lay Phang, probably about 50% of the bay area.  Not all of the beachfront is developed - though some day we can guess it might be.  There are still stretches of native beach peppered with small thatched restaurants and bars.  Thailand - the way we all love it!
