Kata Beach - Phuket
 Katabeach, otherwise known as Kata Bay, is on the sunny Island of Phuket, approximately 1 hour's flying time from Bangkok in the southwestern region of the country. Phuket mainly has two seasons - the wet season from April to November that provides heavy monsoon rains and can be very hot and humid; and the dry season from December to March that provides long hot sunny days. Kata Beach is in fact not one beach but two beaches that are separated by a headland at the south end of Kata Yai Beach and the northen end of Kata Noi Beach.
Kata Beach has a small village-like atmosphere, which is quite pleasant for strolling around of an evening. The bar scene here is fairly low key and informal. Many places have pool tables and television which make them ideal for adults and children alike but that's not to say there is a shortage of places to sit, relax and drink a cocktail or two.
If you prefer wine, try The Boathouse Wine and Grill, which also serves exceptional food in sophisticated surroundings. If Thai food is what you like, then you'll find an endless amount of places serving all kinds of local dishes. You will also find European food served in many places and there are some great Scandinavian restaurants too.
