Tsunami Memorial Park is a small memorial by Kamala Beach in Phuket, commemorating the people who died in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. A large circular bronze sculpture marks the site, with benches beneath the trees for quiet reflection. Its modest scale makes it an easy stop on the way to the beach, though the park can be easy to miss and its upkeep has drawn concern. Visit respectfully and take time to read the memorial through its sculpture and setting.
A memorial by Kamala Beach
The park commemorates lives lost in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Its central marker is a large circular bronze sculpture, set in a small, tree-shaded park close to the beach.
Benches beneath the trees provide a place to sit quietly. The site is understated, so approach it as a place of remembrance rather than a conventional attraction.
What to expect on site
The park is small and can be easy to overlook as you head towards the beach. Its condition has been reported as inconsistent, so the grounds may not always feel well cared for.
Events such as Sip & Surf have also taken place in the area, with local vendors and food. Check the event schedule if you are planning a visit around one.
