Following the road south from Karon beach you will come to a small town centre with shops restaurants and bars, take the road to the right and you will come to Kata Yai Beach. Most of the surfable waves here are at the southern end near Kata Beach Resort.

It is regarded as the most popular surfing beach on Phuket and when the waves are good it can be crowded even for Phuket standards. This is the beach where Quiksilver hosted an annual surfing contest. Although it can get crowded the atmosphere in the water is friendly and so far localism doesn't exist here.

The waves are fast, but makeable and can jack up on the sand bank to twice the height of the swell. The downside to this break is that after the rains a lot of rubbish washes into the water.
