Question. Kata or Nai Yang?
Yes, if Naayang was the best everywhere, I would even go there a second time.
Don't even mention Kat later.
The infrastructure is good, they provide a free transfer for excursions, but the waves are bigger in the off-season than in Nayang. This is until October. After that, it's fine to swim everywhere. Nayang has a calmer sea now, and there are also grocery cafes and a market open until 22:00. It's far from the center.
Thank you. I was on the cat. Now we are looking for cheaper hotels. But I have doubts. We are going in November.
@Natalia: Of course, Nayang, with tourists in a crowd on Kate in five rows, and a line at the cafe to eat. But in Nayang, you will spend more on taxis and transfers for excursions, all at your own expense.
