Ngapali Beach is a beach located in Rakhine State, Myanmar. It is the most famous beach in Myanmar and is a popular tourist destination. |

The Ngapali Beach overlooks the Indian Ocean. The name "Ngapali", has no meaning in Burmese, but comes from the Italian "Napoli" (the city of Naples).
Several resorts and hotels are located in Ngapali, usually of the high end - such as Bayview Ngapali, Amata Resort, Amazing Ngapali and also the government owned Anawa.

The beach is served by Thandwe Airport. All of Myanmar's internal airlines, Myanma Airways, Air Mandalay, Yangon Airways, Air KBZ and Air Bagan have frequent flights to Thandwe from most of their destinations. |

In order to boost Myanmar’s travel industry, the government has specified some new hotel zone just next to the current hotel area.
Compare to other beach resorts such as Hawaii, Bali and Phuket, the beach front land properties in the newly specified hotel zone in Ngapali are still quite cheap.

No doubt that along with the economic development of Myanmar, Ngapali is going to be one of Asia's leading resort as well as Bali and Phuket. |
