The calm northern end of 방따오 bay inside the national park: river mouth, Koh Kala at low tide, no strip.
라얀 · 1.5 km · 없음 · October–April · Revision 2026년 9월 5일
Layan Beach is 1.5 km of sand in 라얀, partly sheltered by headlands, without lifeguards, reached by 도로 free of charge. Best months to swim: October–April; rip-current risk from May to October: moderate. Good for swimming, children, quiet, sunset.
라얀 is the calmest stretch of the whole 방따오 bay: the headland shelters it from the north-west, the sand is fine and the gradient gentle, and in the high season the water is glassy in the mornings. The river mouth at the northern end is shallow enough for small children, and the walk across to Koh Kala at low tide is a small adventure. Loungers are few because the beach is inside the Sirinat park boundary; bring your own shade. The wet season brings smaller waves here than anywhere else on the west coast, and 라얀 is often swimmable when 수린 and 까따 are flagged — but rips run off the headland on rough days and there is no lifeguard post, so it is a judgement, not a guarantee. Jellyfish drift in after storms.

Island rough-sea days, median per calendar month, 2015–2025; the beach's best months in the figure colour · Open-Meteo (ERA5), 2015–2026
The table above applies the island's marine normals to this beach: median rough-sea days per calendar month from Open-Meteo (ERA5), 2015–2026 (2015–2025, marine fields from 2022), damped by the beach's shelter, and median sea-surface temperature from Open-Meteo Marine API (2022-12–2026-08). Calm months here: October–April. Some swell: May–September. No month is rough here on the model. The sea is 28.8–31.0 °C as monthly medians, warm in every month; temperature never decides a swim on Phuket, the sea state does. The best-months row is the beach's own calm season and is derived, not opinion.
Layan Beach is partly sheltered by headlands, which decides its year. A headland takes the edge off the south-west swell, so on the island's rough-sea months (May–September) the sea here is usually 'some swell' rather than 'rough', and the beach is often usable when the open beaches are red-flagged; the rip-current risk from May to October is moderate, and rips still run off the rocks at the ends on big days. There are no lifeguards, so the judgement is yours. Phuket records around 30–40 drownings a year, most of them between May and October on the open west coast; the hospitals catalogue names the nearest 24-hour emergency room from 라얀, and the emergency number is 1669. Jellyfish drift in after storms on the whole coast; vinegar is the first aid.
A couple of simple restaurants and a few vendors; no loungers inside the park boundary — bring shade.
