Ko Ma Resort - Your own island
Ko Ma, Ko Pha Ngan
T: (077) 377 068; F: (077) 377 032

The western stretch of Mae Haad is stunning with great snorkelling offshore, while the eastern side is not so suitable for swimming and sees a good deal of small-scale fishing from longtail boats. The water is relatively shallow along the entire beach and is more accommodating at high tide, but the offshore reef is accessable by a smooth channel mid-beach.

Seethanu is broken in the middle by the boat anchorage, with the northern stretch of the bay being the more popular area. The sand is very white and though the water isn't so clear, the sunbaking is terrific. A coral reef not far from shore provides easily-accessible snorkelling opportunities with some decent corals and tropical fish. At the southern end of the bay, the beach isn't so great, but the resorts are perched up on the headland, some with quiet good views. Mostly inexpensive, they vary greatly in quality. There are also a couple of places on the far (southern) side of the headland that are included here for ease of use even though they are not actually on Ao Seethanu.
