Rawai waterfront
An easy-going seafront lined with local restaurants, seafood, cafés and views of the long-tail boats.
The neighborhood
This guide stays deliberately local: the waterfront, beach, lake, market and everyday places guests use in Rawai and Nai Harn.
Close to Tea Tree
Rawai is relaxed and practical, while Nai Harn gives you the broad sandy swimming beach nearby. Together they make Tea Tree an easy base for both short breaks and longer stays.
No island-wide sightseeing list here—only the Rawai and Nai Harn places that shape the neighborhood around the resort.
