The Barracuda brand has been going (and growing!) since 2010, but we only opened our beach restaurant on Koh Tao in 2024, making Barracuda on the Beach the newest addition to the Barracuda family. We hope our regular visitors who have been dining with us for many years already are just as proud of our progress as we are!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

After achieving our goal of creating a rooftop restaurant<\/a> with spectacular views, it was only natural for us to expand to shoreline dining next! Our beach restaurant on Koh Tao within the thriving Hydronauts Resort provides the perfect opportunity to expand our offering to include lunchtime and all-day snack service alongside a full dinner menu while becoming a part of a vibrant, welcoming resort atmosphere.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
