In the southern part of Thailand, nestled in the province of Phang Nga, you'll find the serene resort of Khao Lak. Situated along the shores of the Andaman Sea, it's relatively close to the world-famous Phuket. Even during the peak season, local beaches remain pleasantly uncrowded.
Exploring Khao Lak wouldn't be complete without immersing yourself in the natural wonders of the area. While in Khao Lak, a visit to the National Park is a must. It unveils a breathtaking world of waterfalls, mountain streams, and a unique hilly landscape. Within the park's boundaries, you'll encounter several hundred species of exotic fauna and a rich array of local flora, totaling around a thousand species.
Khao Lak's true gems are its waterfalls, with many of them forming refreshing lakes at their lower stages, perfect for a relaxing swim after exploring the resort.
To conclude your Khao Lak vacation perfectly, consider diving near the Similan and Surin Islands. Even if you're not keen on diving deep into the sea, a standard excursion to these archipelagos won't disappoint. Their exotic evergreen jungles and pristine white sandy beaches will leave no one indifferent.
