Otres is the next beach south of Ochheuteal and in many way resembles Ochheuteal - a 3
kilometer crescent of near white sand - but far less tourist than Ochheuteal. The road over the hill from Ochheuteal (through Queen’s Hill Resort on top of the hill) allowing easy access to
Otres is relatively new and the beach is largely undeveloped. There are scattered grass umbrellas along the beach and a few thatch roof beach bars and restaurants clustered toward the near end
including the Star Bar offering beachfront bungalows, bar and restaurant, and Otres Nautical offering water sports equipment - boats, Hobie Waves, kayaks, etc. The new Queens
Hill Resort bungalows sits on the hill side at the near end, overlooking the ocean and beach. Otres village and pagoda sit
about 1km off the beach. To get there from Ochheuteal Beach follow 1 Kanda Street to the end, turn to the beach road
and follow it to the end of Ochheuteal, cross the new bridge and follow the road over the hill to Otres. Dirty road on the
Otres side. Or from downtown, take Omui St. southeast about 4km to a fork and turn right. At the next opportunity take a left. It is 2km to the beach. Dirt road much of the way
