Kata Noi Beach is a right-hand break just south near Kata Thani Resort, with snappier waves at the northern end and rights peeling off the headland.
When It Works
The break draws swell from southwest through west, with southwest (SW) the best match. Waves break over sand and are usable from 0.3 m / 1 ft to 1.8 m / 6 ft. Consistency is moderate, so count on worthwhile windows when the setup lines up rather than surf every day.
Wind and Tide
Look for northeast (NE) offshore wind. It can work through most of the tide, with a rising tide generally the better call.
Local Tips
This one suits intermediate surfers best. Expect a moderately busy lineup when it works, and give the locals their due respect in the water.
