Chalok Ban Kao

There are only a few places of note outside of the usual guesthouse and resort offerings and the most popular Thai restaurant actually sits on the road out of Chalok Ban Kao.

To find Tukta, head out on the main road towards Mae Haad, take the first major turn to the left and you will find it set back from the road at the start of the hill on the right hand side. The place is a mosquito mecca at sundown but avoid that time and you should be treated to a tasty inexpensive meal in a clean and efficient manner.

The Castle is a large purpose-built nightclub with an interesting multi-floor layout including lots of nooks and crannies in which to hang out. The place holds regular parties which are advertised on huge street-spanning banners. It lies on the main road out of Mae Haad to Chalok and only a few minutes' walk from Tukta.

A few relaxed bars line the main beach and the usual array of seafood barbecue options are available too. Follow the concrete walkway at the western end of the beach and this will lead you eventually to Babaloo beach bar, which also throws regular parties but otherwise remain a chilled and relaxed spot.

If you're looking for a wider variety of eateries and bars, you are better off to head into the big smoke over in Mae Haad or Haad Sairee.
