Situated on the northwestern coast of Thailand’s largest island, Sirinat National Park overlooks the waters of the Andaman Sea as a sanctuary of rainforest and beaches 30km away from Phuket town. Explore a diverse ecosystem and white sandy shores, while watching low-flying planes soar above the trees, with an essential guide to Phuket’s quaint coastal park.

The park offers essential facilities, including restrooms, picnic areas, and small shops selling snacks and drinks. While accommodations within the park are limited, several resorts and hotels are located nearby, offering a comfortable base for your exploration, including Avani+ Mai Khao Phuket Suites & Villas on Mai Khao beach.
A Birdwatcher’s Haven
Sirinat National Park puts on an impressive showcase for birdwatchers, with a diverse array of avian species inhabiting the park’s wetlands and forests. Keep an eye out for rare and migratory birds as you explore the park’s trails.
Beaches Worth Exploring
As a park bordering Phuket’s seas, the beaches are its heart and soul. Nai Yang Beach, known for its calm waters and soft sands, is a popular spot for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing. Nai Thong Beach, with its stunning natural beauty, offers a more secluded experience. Both beaches provide opportunities for water sports and beachcombing.
