Phang Nga
Diversely populated by Thai-Chinese, Buddhist and Muslim communities, Phang Nga is a vibrant province brimming with outdoor activities for the eco-tourist and adventure traveler. Limestone cliffs jut dramatically from the sea, covered with lush vegetation. By boat or canoe, explore hidden lagoons, secluded beaches and naturally carved rock formations surrounding the island. Trek through forests and hiking trails to see such waterfalls as the Sanong Manor waterfall or Namtok Lamru, Ko Similan Natural Park to dive or snorkel, Pariwat Wildlife Sanctuary to see elephants, and more.
