A great venue for watching live sports and playing pool. They have pool tables and TV screens at the second floor, while they have a few larger screens downstairs in the bar area.

Parks & Nature
The beach is beautiful and about 2 km in length. A number of small Thai restaurants and bars are stretching along the beach. Here you can watch the sunset from the beach. Kamala is the perfect place to get away from it all and just unwind and enjoy the sun, sea and sand.

One of the most beautiful beaches on the island nestled between Kamala and Surin beach. This 150 meter beach is located in a hidden bay surrounded by palm trees and dotted with giant boulders. Water is crystal clear, and the whole bay has a rural and nostalgic feel to it. Note the entrance point is from the top of the hill, so it offers a very steep descent down an uneven staircase. It can get busy during high season, and the car parks are scares.
