Daya Beach

Daya Beach is a small, secluded stretch on Koh Lipe's south side, accessible from a trail near Walking Street. The beach is rocky in places but the water clarity is remarkable — you can see fish from the shoreline without getting wet. Few visitors make the walk. Bring reef shoes and your own water. There are no vendors or facilities. The isolation is the point. At low tide, rock pools form with trapped fish and sea urchins. A quiet escape from Lipe's more popular shores.
