But more importantly, I can now bid goodbye to small and compact and say hello to big and spacious.
Bangniang Beach Resort is a newly renovated beach resort located in Khao Lak, a beautiful corner of the Andaman Sea and a popular jump-off point to the Similan Islands.
After 4 days of exploring the sea, it was time to do some land survey.
The resort is just a few minutes walk to Bangniang Beach
Chicken with Basil
and there, before we fly back tomorrow to the real world, we spent the rest of the day exploring more of what Thailand had to offer — taste -wise.
Located just north of Phuket Island is one of Thailand’s most peaceful resort destination
—blessed with beautiful sunsets and
sprawled with natural and comfortable bungalows, cool beach restaurants and beach bars. It offers an array of activities from fishing village excursions to waterfalls and cave hikes. No less than three National Parks surrounds this resort town. And if none of these activities excites, spending the day unwinding on the beach that seems to go on for miles, might be the answer.
This charming resort town shows very little signs that 6 years ago, more than 4,000 people died here when the tsunami struck its shores. The only signs of that fateful day were
these warning street signs and
a police patrol vessel carried almost 2 kilometers inland (that fateful day) to where it sits today. The boat was left where it landed and is now maintained as a memorial.
Khao Lak still remains relatively unknown and has not yet been intruded by the mainstream tourists, which makes this place ideal for those seeking quiet solitude.
