Karon Viewpoint sits on the hill road between Kata and Nai Harn and looks back over three beaches in succession — Kata Noi closest, then Kata Yai, then Karon stretching north towards the horizon. It is the most photographed spot in southern Phuket and rightly so.
There's a parking area, a small café, and souvenir stalls; come early morning or late afternoon for the best light and to avoid the tour-bus crowd. About 10 minutes by scooter from central Kata; tuk-tuks ask 200–300 baht for a return trip with waiting time.
