	Khao Lak Beach in the South of Thailand in Phang Nga Province		Khao Lak		Please click for an enlarged view of Phang Nga Province.
			Khao Laks stränder är som gjorda för människor som söker närhet till naturen och en avslappnad livsstil. Richard Point vid kilometer markering 57,2 på väg H4 erbjuder en fantastisk utsikt. En gyllenbrun remsa av sand, med pittoreska stenblock, skiljer det blå Andaman havet från gröna palmer. Casuarina träd och andra stora träd vajar ståtligt på den 12 km långa stranden. På låglandet 600-2000 meter in från havet böljar gummi och kokosnöts odlingar, med små byar inbäddat I grönskan. Många sjöar kan skådas, en kvarleva från tenn gruvorna (vattenfyllda gruvhål) som var huvud sysselsättningen här förut. Området kallas Khao Lak-Lamru National Park. 2 kilometer längre fram på väg H4 ligger byn Ban Bang Niang, där finns restauranger, lite shopping, men framförallt den populära marknaden (mån-ons-lör).
