Mai Khao is a quiet stretch of coast in Thalang district on Phuket, a long sandy beach area close to the island's international airport. The coast here is known for sea turtles, which come ashore on the sand to nest, and it is calmer than the busier beaches of Patong and Kata. The beaches are long and open, and the sand is good for an early walk before the day heats up, when the water is calm and the light is soft.

Maikhao Beach is 1.9 km away, and the Airplane Viewpoint at Maikhao Beach, 3.1 km away, is a popular spot to watch aircraft come in low over the sand. Splash Jungle Water Park is 2.6 km away, and the airport is a constant part of the local scene. Getting around usually means a car or taxi, because the beaches and villages are spread along the coast.

A good day starts with a walk on Maikhao Beach, then a visit to the Mai Khao Marine Turtle Foundation, 3.6 km away, which works to protect turtle nests. In the evening, the Ni Yang Night Market is 5.1 km away, and Nai Yang Beach, further along the coast, is a quieter place for a late afternoon swim before dinner.
