📍 Getting There

🚶Short walk to the beach

From the Chalong traffic circle, head south along the main road. Just before the road curves to the right up a hill, exit onto the small road on the left. There is a small sign reading "Friendship Beach" but it can be easy to miss. Follow the road for a short distance and you will find a parking area on the right. Access the beach by walking through the resort and restaurant area.
