About After Beach Bar & Restaurant

A Thai bar and restaurant on a terrace above Kata Noi Bay, on the winding road from Kata to Nai Harn, in business for more than twenty years. It began as a reggae bar and still plays Bob Marley among its reggae decorations, but the draw is the view: the whole bay below, and one of the best sunsets on the island. The kitchen keeps to Thai standards such as pad thai and green curry, with cold beer and fresh coconuts at fair prices for the setting. Open every day 09:00–22:00; parking is a few places by the road.
