Swim at Ban Nam Rad Headwater Forest

Located not too far from Khao Sok, tucked away in between the tropical trees in the remote region of Surat Thani, you will find this incredible natural pool - Ban Nam Rad Headwater Forest waiting for you to jump in. The bright emerald-colored pool and the crystal clear water fed by the river nearby is the perfect place to escape the heat and humidity of Thailand and get soaked in refreshing water while being surrounded by a tropical forest.

In the other section of the area, you can also rent a kayak and paddle along the river that fed the pool and explore the beautiful tropical forest that surrounds the area and spot some wildlife along the way. The entrance fee to Ban Nam Rad Headwater Forest is 30 THB per person, and 20 THB for a parking spot, and if you wish to rent a kayak to explore the river, it's another 100 THB. The place opens from 9 AM to 5 PM every day.
