About Chaung Tha Beach in Myanmar
Chaungtha or Chaung Thar is a perfect beach break near Yangon in the Irrawaddy region of Myanmar. It takes approximately 6 hours to get there from Yangon.
The endless sand beach and fishing villages of Chaung Tha will bring you a taste of Myanmar coastal life, away from mass tourism of neighbor Thailand.
Many beach vendors will propose you fresh coconut juice, seafood barbecue and refreshments but they will move away if you simply show that you are not interested.
