kalim travel information guide

Kalim Bay is located just to the north of Patong. This area is much quieter than Patong although the beach is not as good for swimming as there are a few rocks and a coral reef. The reef is exposed at low tide and locals can be seen collecting crabs and shrimp.

There are a few hotels here, but overall the area is pretty quiet. Kalim is a good alternative if you want to be nearby the bars and restaurants of Patong, but still want peace and quiet.

During the rainy season, Kalim can be a great surf spot at high tide with some really long rides. However, it’s not suitable for beginners and you need to watch out for the sharp rocks and reef below.
