Surin Beach is at west coast of Phuket Island, somehow in the middle stretched along the waterline for about one km and behind are hills.
Behind the beach runs the beach road and along the beach road are some of best hotels and resorts in Phuket Thailand. Like The Cedi Hotel, actually the Chedi Hotel is already a bit further north on Pansea Beach, but all this is within about 10 minutes walking distance.
There is also the Twin Palm Hotel at Surin Beach , in a modernistic style environment and a new Marriot Courtyard Phuket just beside.Along the road are plenty of shops, small supermarkets and the usual Indian tailors plus naturally Thai restaurants.
Its about half distance between the airport and Phuket Town, from Surin Beach leads a very winding coastal road to Kamala Beach and Patong Beach. To Patong its about half hour.
Surin Beach is quite popular with Thai's , many enjoy the beach in the afternoon and / or have a picnic on the Pick Up back.
There are other accommodations around on Surin beach, mainly bungalows and cottages in the hills.
Actually Surin beach and Kamala Beach further south are not very inviting in terms of a attractive view. Right behind Surin and before the beach road are the usual small shops and restaurants.
