Many beaches offer the usual water sports such as parasailing, jet-skiing, and kite surfing. There are also several other activities available on some beaches such as volleyball or even horseback riding.

Some of the more secluded and rocky shores beaches like Ya Nui, Kata Noi, and Paradise Beach have the perfect combination of rocky heads and tidal pools, making them ideal for snorkeling.
