Chaungtha Beach located 154miles east of Yangon on the Bay of Bengal coast, has recently opened to foreign tourists. Chaungtha Beach, at low tide the very wide beach has a touch of the "muddy delta" look, but overall at medium and high tide it's attractive enough, with fine, beige sand, backed by coconut palms and casuarinas trees.
The village has a network of sand roads lined with simple wood or thatch houses. Most Chaungtha residents' fish, or farm coconuts for a living: a couple of families also make furniture-using rattan collected in nearby jungles. There are several small souvenir shops where they sell products made out of seashells and simple restaurants where excellent and cheap seafood is served.
