Explore Khao Lak

Khao Lak is probably the most tourist town in Phang Nga and for good reasons. The place is a great launching pad to explore the rich marine life of the Similan and Surin archipelago which are considered to be some of the best diving and snorkeling spots in the country. There are also some really nice places to visit like the golden-colored sandy beach of Nang Thong which offers a nice quiet and spacious place for you to relax.

On top of a mountain, there is a wonderful restaurant named KhaoLak Phu View that offers a panoramic view of the entire town and its shoreline. When you are in Khao Lak, be sure to go up there at the appropriate hour because it is particularly lovely at sunset and a great site for dinner. In addition, a lovely national park named Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park is not far from the town and it has a number of lovely walking pathways along the coastline that will enable you to view some of the greatest aspects of the beaches in Khao Lak without the tourist throng.
