Water shoes for the reef
The seabed is rocky with old coral almost everywhere, so Kalim is for surfing and views rather than swimming; wear booties to surf or snorkel.

Kalim is a modest bay just north of Patong, where the coast road climbs towards Kamala. The sand is coarse, and the seafloor is mostly rocks and coral rubble, so it is neither a swimming nor a sunbathing beach. Locals come to walk their dogs, fish from the shore and watch the sea.
In the low season Kalim turns into one of Phuket's surf spots, with a reef break that works best at high tide and has hosted surf contests. The waves are not huge, and the sharp reef makes it a spot for surfers who can handle it rather than for beginners.
The views over Patong Bay have drawn some of the area's best restaurants, from Michelin-listed French and Italian dining to a halal seafood place in bamboo huts by the sea. At the end of each afternoon, food vendors park their cars along the seafront and sell dishes from their boots.

Low-season surfing, a sunset drink and a good dinner a short walk from Patong.
Kalim earns its place for low-season surf, sunset views over Patong Bay, afternoon street food along the seafront and a cluster of very good restaurants just north of Patong. It sits at the bottom of the site's scale because the sand is coarse and the seabed is rocks and coral rubble, so it is not a beach for swimming or lying on the sand.

Kalim is not a family beach: the seabed is rocky with coral, there are no lifeguards and a busy road runs behind the sand. Families can enjoy the restaurants, such as the family-friendly Salsa Mexicana, and swim at Patong next door.
Kalim lies at the northern edge of Patong on Phrabaramee Road, the coast road to Kamala, which runs right along the bay. From Patong it is about a 20-minute walk along the shore.
ที่จอดรถ: Cars park along the seafront, where the street-food vendors also set up. SeaSalt diners can park at Diamond Cliff Resort across the street.
Kalim is for looking, eating and surfing; for a swim, walk 20 minutes south to Patong.
That is when the street-food cars arrive along the seashore and the light turns golden for sunset.
The reef works best and is safest at high tide; at low tide it is shallow.
Whether surfing or snorkelling, reef booties protect your feet from the coral.
Acqua fills up in the high season; reserve a table ahead.
Kalim Rim Lay is a halal restaurant: no pork or alcohol, but some of the best grilled chicken around.
