Patong Beach where there were actually people on the beach! Clean, fine white sand and clear water (Andaman Sea) about 87F. Chair, umbrella and table are about $2.25/day - and are rented by beach side "snack bars". I had food "delivered" to my beach chair by one of the many street vendors located on the street that parallels the beach - terrific ginger chicken, asparagus and gratis watermelon slices for about $1.75! There are only 2 hotels on the beach located on either end of beach where there are few people or street vendors - and they are very expensive. Fortunately, my hotel is just 1.5 blocks from the center of Patong beach.
Me at the Patong Beach "snack bar" and my chair/umbrella location. This will probably be my "beach home" while in Patong.
