Location Information:
Karon
Beach refers to a beach, and the
town adjoining it, on the western
coast of Phuket, Thailand.
The beach is a popular destination
for tourists. Generally quieter than
neighbouring Patong Beach, it is
especially popular among families
and couples, and less popular with
singles than Patong. It is also
especially popular with Scandinavian
tourists, with many businesses
catering especially to them.
Karon Beach was heavily damaged by
the tsunamis following the 2004
Indian Ocean earthquake, especially
in its southern regions, but has
since largely recovered and by 2008
showed little evidence of tsunami
damage.
