Kamala is a calm stretch of Phuket's coast in Kathu district, a quieter alternative to the busier beaches around Patong. The sand is lined with small hotels, restaurants and street stalls, and the bars of Bangla Road lie further along the coast for travellers who want a livelier evening. The village of Kamala sits just behind the sand, close to the guesthouse.

Phuket FantaSea, a large cultural show and theme park, is 750 m away and makes an easy evening outing. Kamala Night Market is also close by, a busy evening market with street food and stalls. Patong Beach, the island's best-known resort beach, is 5 km away, and Big Buddha, a large hilltop statue, is 14 km away. Phuket International Airport is 18.1 km away, and because the island is linked by road, a car or taxi is the usual way to reach them.

A full day could start with a swim at Kamala Beach, continue to Big Buddha on its hill and finish with dinner at the night market. Because the island is joined by road, it is easy to return to Kamala afterwards. A quiet evening at the night market or a stroll along the beach makes an easy end to a day out.
