The biggest improvement would be to put mufflers on the motorbikes and some cars. Otherwise the beach is great and the Karon Kata boutique hotel was awesome ### 4/5 - Good Connie The beach is lovely but after a certain time the place is completely dead and the crowd is Much older. I would still stay here over patong though. ### 3/5 - Okay Verified traveller Kata and Karon were both very touristy. We thought these were supposed to be the "quiet" beaches, but this was not the case. Streets were full of vehicles, motorbikes, peds all trying to navigate unsafe streets (usuallly with limited sidewalks). ### 4/5 - Good Verified traveller Kata was a great little beach town. If you speak Russian or like Russian food, you'll be in for a treat! ### 5/5 - Excellent C.Wong Kata was a very relaxing area of phuket - the beach was beautiful and not very crowded. Lots of different options for food - both for locals and tourists. ### 4/5 - Good Journeygeeks Overall Thailand has become very touristy and there are very few beaches you can relax. ## Cities near Kata ![Karon Beach featuring general coastal views, tropical scenes and a sandy beach](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/252000/252094-Phuket.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Karon [](https://expedia.ca/Karon.dx6337849) ![Nai Harn Beach featuring general coastal views, boating and a coastal town](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res80/21000/21667-Naiharn-Beach.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Rawai [](https://expedia.ca/Rawai.dx6337852) - Cities near Kata - Places of interest [Karon](https://expedia.ca/Karon.dx6337849)[Rawai](https://expedia.ca/Rawai.dx6337852) - [Kata Beach](https://expedia.ca/Kata-Beach-Karon.d6067908.Vacation-Attraction) - [Kata Noi Beach](https://expedia.ca/Kata-Noi-Beach-Karon.d6067900.Vacation-Attraction) - [Dino Park Mini Golf](https://expedia.ca/Dino-Park-Mini-Golf-Karon.d6232566.Vacation-Attraction) - [Karon Beach](https://expedia.ca/Karon-Beach-Karon.d6050562.Vacation-Attraction) - [Kamala Beach](https://expedia.ca/Kamala-Beach-Kamala.d6176433.Vacation-Attraction) - [Bangla Road](https://expedia.ca/Bangla-Road-Patong.d6125795.Vacation-Attraction) - [Mai Khao Beach](https://expedia.ca/Mai-Khao-Beach-Mai-Khao.d6137856.Vacation-Attraction) - [Nai Han Beach](https://expedia.ca/Nai-Han-Beach-Rawai.d6166508.Vacation-Attraction) - [Kalim Beach](https://expedia.ca/Kalim-Beach-Patong.d6209553.Vacation-Attraction) - [Big Buddha](https://expedia.ca/Big-Buddha-Karon.d6145552.Vacation-Attraction) - [Chalong Pier](https://expedia.ca/Chalong-Pier-Chalong.d6145508.Vacation-Attraction) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/mad-service/footer/bnaBanners/BEX_Footer.jpg) ## Go further with the Expedia app Save on select hotels and earn double points when you book on the app. Our app deals help you to save on trips so you can travel more and manage it all on the go.
