Karon Beach

Karon Beach (Thai: หาดกะรน, RTGS: Hat Karon, pronounced [hàːt kā.rōn]) refers to a beach, and the town adjoining it, on the west coast of Phuket, Thailand.

Generally quieter than neighbouring Patong, it is popular with families and couples.

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.
