Not a swimming beach
The water is shallow and crowded with longtail boats; swim at Nai Harn, 2 km away, instead.
ราไวย์ · ชายฝั่งใต้
The working harbour at Phuket's southern tip: longtails to the islands and a seafood market where restaurants cook what you buy. Not a beach for swimming.
หรือเขียนว่า Hat Rawai, Rawai Bay, Rawai Pier, Rawai Seafood Beach · หาดราไวย์ · Пляж Раваи
Rawai is the working harbour at the southern tip of Phuket, facing east towards Coral Island and Koh Lone. Dozens of longtail boats wait on the shore for trips to Koh Bon, Coral Island and the Racha islands, and a beachfront road of about a kilometre runs along the bay under casuarina trees.
Next to Rawai Pier, the Rawai Seafood Market is one of Phuket's favourite dining experiences: you buy fish, prawns, lobster and crab from the stalls and have them cooked at the restaurants across the road. Further along the beachfront, Thai families eat at tables on the sidewalk by the water, with lanterns in the trees and the islands going dark in front of them.
The shore is rocky and shallow, and at low tide the water retreats far out over a muddy bottom, so Rawai is not a place to swim or sunbathe; a small sandy stretch at the east end is used by local children. The Chao Ley sea gypsy community lives near the pier. For a swim, Nai Harn is 2 km away.

A seafood lunch or dinner by the sea and a longtail trip to the islands.
Rawai is a working harbour, not a swimming beach: the water is shallow, full of longtail boats and retreats far at low tide. It earns its place for Phuket's most famous seafood market, a casuarina-lined beachfront of local restaurants and the longtails to the southern islands, with Nai Harn's sand 2 km away.

Rawai is not a beach for children to swim, but families enjoy the seafood market, the boats and a longtail trip to an island. Nai Harn, 2 km away, is the place for a family swim.
Rawai is at the southern tip of Phuket, about 10 minutes south of Chalong Circle. The seafood market is on Wiset Road, just to the left of Rawai Pier.
ที่จอดรถ: There is no known car park; the beachfront road runs the length of the bay.
The freshest choice at the market is from about 10:00 to 14:00.
You pay the stall for the raw seafood and the restaurant separately for cooking it.
Beyond the market, local restaurants set tables on the sidewalk by the water under lanterns.
Longtail prices are negotiated with the drivers; settle the price and return time before you leave.
Rawai is not for swimming; Nai Harn, 2 km away, is one of the best swimming beaches in the south.
It is a living community, not a show; ask before taking photos of people.
