Beach description
Coral Cove means Coral Cove. Its length is only 176 meters, including huge boulders that hide a small patch of sand from the main beach. All 176 meters of shore 25 meters wide, covered with coarse reddish sand with splashes coral wreckage. The area behind the boulders is covered with even larger sand, which is unpleasant to walk barefoot, and at noon the sun even hurts.
The sand is loose, like on Maenam, which makes it difficult to walk and contributes to your stability on a steep bank at the entrance to water
Due to its size and lack of infrastructure, Coral Cove is one of the most clean and well-kept beaches of Samui. Does not spoil its even the presence of a small bed of the stream, which almost dries up in in the heat of the wet season, when it rains in the wet season drainage system. In case anyone is interested in reading about others places, I have a quick overview of all the beaches of Samui, will help you decide on the choice of the beach.
Entry, depth and waves
The water off the coast of the Coral Bay without silt and marine debris is very clean. The depth to the Coral Cove does not keep you waiting, therefore with the naked eye you can not make out what is there at the bottom. Coast quickly goes under water, and his legs are off the bottom already in three steps from the beach.
With children on this beach is not easy to relax, and their water is better some do not let go. Due to the deep water, Coral Cove does not change during low tide, but subject to high waves, especially in windy and stormy weather.
Sun beds and shade
Sun beds are available at nearby hotels, but are intended only for guests of the institution. Having a lot of natural shade from palm trees and rocks provides a comfortable rest savage. The bulk people arrive here on motorbikes, with one towel in the trunk.

As a guide you can use trampled by cars and bikes roadside where people throw parked transport.
Strictly opposite it is the exit towards the sea. Parking there is a bottom, but it is small, and often forced by machines. Two or three pickups are enough to have no place to turn around, Especially if there is an influx of visitors on scooters.
