1. Phang Nga Elephant Park

5 based on 579 reviews
The best establishment in Southern Thailand to experience our national animal - THE ELEPHANT. Close-by to Phang Nga & Khao Lak, bordering a leafy national park - we are dedicated to providing our elephants with the highest quality-of-life. We are against unnatural practices such as elephant dancing and circus tricks, and strive constantly to educate and improve animal welfare.

Visited the park with my wife this morning and she was so excited she couldn't sleep. It lived up to our expectations and more. The trip from Khao Lak was about 45 mins. We were greeted by a very friendly English guide called Duane. After a quick safety chat we were off to see our elephants. There were only 7 guests this morning and each couple or family had an elephant to care for (under supervision of their real mahouts). The elephants are well looked after and loved. After walking up a hill (you could ride the elephant bareback but we chose not to) you got to prepare a basket of yummy treats for your elephant and then feed them. After this you get to ride or walk with your elephant back down the hill ready to give them a bath. Here's the best bit....you get in with them. You wash your elephant and get to spend time in the pool until they decide they have had enough. Ours rolled on her side loving it and another fell asleep.
After this we got to shower off and then have a really tasty lunch. The final part of the experience is to get to see the baby elephants, from a safe distance.
All in all, a truly fabulous experience...thank you.

Phang Nga is famous for spectacular scenery with limestone cliffs rising out of green water. There are caves, lagoons and tiny secluded Beaches awaiting discovery.

This was a beautiful tour through caves and into multiple scenic bays and coves. The locals that paddle you through are very informational and will take you where ever you want to go. Definitely recommend it. Only wish I could rate the tour company. I could not find them on this site.
4. Pak Weep Beach

This beach stretches for 11km and is totally unspoiled. Beautiful white sand, warm water, very safe swimming with low waves. Plenty of beach restaurants hidden in the trees.
But be aware Thai law (post 1 Feb 18) forbids hotels and restaurants providing beach umbrellas. Bit there is plenty of shade under the trees.
5. White Sand Beach

A 15 minute taxi ride for around 300 baht from The Sands in Khao Lak we found The White Sand Beach. A picture perfect beach with calm waters and white sand. Its full of hermit crabs which makes much fun for kids and adults as well.
A good selection of 4 restaurants on the beach. We tried both the big one at the "entrance" White Sand Beach which was okay and the Smile Beach Resort which also was okay and the staff here were really nice. The kids loved it.
Take a break here, see the sunset and eat some food right on the beach.

The island is small. Along the western beach you have some resorts and B&B's. That's it. On the rest of the island there are some rural villages with rubber trees around. Really relaxing!
7. Royal Thai Navy Third Fleet Turtle Nursery

Reviewed By Barry W - Paphos
The Nursery look after a wide range of turtles from baby ones to extremely large one. There are also sick and injured ones. An ideal visit for families with young children. Entrance is 60THB per adult but I am not sure of the cost of admission for children. There are also shops for refreshments and souvenirs. We stayed about 45 minutes.
8. Bangsak Beach

Reviewed By WayneAP - Geelong, Australia
Bangsak beach is great for long walks especially around sunset, the West facing aspect gives the best opportunity for those who want to experience spectacular Thai sunsets.
There are several restaurants hidden amongst the trees which gives shade from the sun whilst you dine.
Definitely recommend a visit.
