Though the more frequented destinations of Bagan, Yangon and Inle Lake steal the limelight, beautiful southern Myanmar deserves a spot on your next holiday itinerary. The country's southern Tanintharyi Division is home to luxurious private beaches, remote island chains, mesmerizing clear blue waters of the Andaman Sea and more. Recently opened to travellers, the towns of Dawei and Myeik along with the raved-about Myeik Archipelago will fully delight your senses filling your days with the sand, sun and sea.
