Beaches
Ngapali, Chaung Tha, Kan Thaya and Ngwe Saung are stretches of unspoilt beaches ideal for lovers of sun, sand and sea.Myanmar's beaches have been untouched by commercialism and unpolluted by the litter of large crowds and so continue to maintain their pristine beauty and cleanliness. Long stretches of white sand touched by the blue sea and drenched by the sun offer an ideal place for lovers of the sea, sand and the sun. Among the most popular beaches are:

Ngapali Beach
Ngapali Beach is the most beautiful beach among the beaches in Myanmar. Its beautiful sandy beach stretches on the Bay of Bengal and it lies in Rakhine State of Myanmar.Apart from the normal beach activities, excursions like visiting the small fishing villages and local markets; exploring the countryside by bicycle and a boat trips to the magnificent offshore islands can be experienced in Ngapali. There is also the 18-hole Golf Course just 15 minutes drive from the hotel to fulfill the taste of beach golfers.
Once there was a home sick Italian who said the beach looked like the Naple beach in Italy. And it is assumed to have descended from the word "Naple". There is no meaning in Myanmar or Rakhine about Ngapali.
Ngapali is accessible by flight which takes about 45 minutes from Yangon, by car about 14 hours drive along the Rakhine Yoma mountain range. Yangon Airways, Air Mandalay and Air Bagan fly from Yangon to Ngapali daily and there are also direct flights from Heho and Nyaung Oo to Ngapali. The best time to visit is during October to May.
