NGAPALI BEACH STAY

Yangon – Ngapali Beach – Yangon

Ngapali Beach Undoubtedly one of the finest places for a relaxing holiday in Myanmar is Ngapali Beach near Thandwe (Sandoway) in Rakhine (Arakan) State, on the Bay of Bengal. Ngapali Beach is one of the loveliest places in Myanmar; it is also one of the most unspoiled beaches in the world, with miles of pure white sands fringing the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean. It takes only 45 minutes by flight from Yangon to Thandwè. Actually, Ngapali is not one single beach, but a series of beaches interspersed with small fishing villages stretching from Mazin where the airport is located, to Lontha on Mayo Bay where coastal steamers dock in a sheltered anchorage. A small winding tarmac road snakes its way along the coast for about twelve miles from Mazin to Lontha, passing through Ngapali village, Shwewa Gyaing, Myabyin, Lontha and several other small villages nestling between the beaches and the hills along the coast. A golf course of 9 holes next to the road near Ngapali village is being upgraded.
