Introduction
Ranking high on lists of South East Asia's best beaches, Ngapali is a relatively quiet and welcome alternative to busier stretches of sand found in Thailand and elsewhere in this region.
There is a small selection of good resorts and a healthy collection of fishing villages that benefit from the rich pickings of the Bay of Bengal.
Palms cast shadows over powder-white sands, boats depart to the surrounding islands and fishermen drop lines into clear, azure waters.
