Best Asian Beaches To Explore With The Family
1. Otres Beach in Cambodia
Cambodia is booming as a luxury holiday travel destination and locations like Otres Beach are becoming increasingly popular both for newly married couples who want to stroll along the narrow strip of white sand hand in hand and those with families looking for an exotic location with plenty to offer. If you love clear water and warm breezes with stunning sunsets, this is one place you’ll want to try.
Surrounded by beautiful bungalows and independent luxury resorts, it’s long resisted the temptation of over-commercialization. The beach is split into two strips: Otres 1 and Otres 2, the first being the busiest. It’s the perfect place for a long, leisurely swim or a gentle stroll depending on your mood.
2. Haeundae Beach in South Korea
If you prefer something less out of the way and right next to the beating heart of a busy city, Haeundae Beach is often tipped as the Miami of South Korea. You’ll find it on the east edge of Busan and there are plenty of things to do and see, including day and night time cruises around the bay and excellent places to eat and relax such as the Gamcheon Culture Village.
The beach is clean and popular with families and an excellent place to spend the day. Nearby you’ll find the Busan Aquarium which has some 250 different species of aquatic animals to amaze the kids, including the opportunity to get up close with some sharks.
3. Phra Nang Cave Beach in Thailand
Exotic and beautifully enigmatic, Phra Nang Beach is the perfect mix of local culture and tourist attractions. You’ll be able to see fishermen heading out for their daily catch and visit their nearby shrine to the Indian princess who lost her life in a shipwreck. Boatmen leave gifts at this cave temple to protect them while out at sea.
Phra Nang Beach is reached by a short boat ride from the mainland and is a gentle walk from the Rayavadee Resort. There are over 130 small islands in the surrounding area and lots to explore. There’s certainly plenty here to keep both adults and children happy whether you’re travel lovers on a budget or looking for the ultimate luxury experience.
4. Ngapali Beach in Myanmar
Another world of white sand and beautiful palm trees, Ngapali Beach has grown around traditional fishing villages and now sports some excellent luxury resorts and hotels to suit almost every taste. Kids who love to go kayaking or want to try snorkeling in the brilliant blue waters should be able to find more than enough to do. Mums and dads who want a relaxing round of golf won’t be disappointed either.
If you want to have a really exciting treat, you can also opt for a balloon ride which gives you a birds eye view of the coastline around the Bengal coast. In addition, there are plenty of bustling markets and interesting places to eat. The truth is you can find something new and exciting every day at Ngapali Beach and still not cover everything during your stay.
5. Agonda Beach in Goa
Goa has always been about the lure of the exotic for committed travel lovers who want to taste absolutely everything the world has to offer. Agonda Beach is a popular destination and is less busy than nearby Palolem Beach with seaside huts that make it feel like you’re living almost on top of the ocean.
For families there’s the chance to take long walks along the white sand beaches and relax by the sea. When you’re feeling hungry, you can always go for a bite to eat at the busy Fatima’s Corner, which serves some of the most delicious seafood in the whole of Asia.
6. Radhanagar Beach in the Andaman Islands
This picturesque region of India is perhaps less well-known to your average tourist but keen travelers will certainly have come across it. The Andaman Islands are a beautifully undisturbed region with aqua blue seas and stunning coral reefs. Radhanagar Beach is on the south side of Havelock Island and has often been voted the best beach in Asia.
