Khao Lak Beach, Phang Nga Province, is located in Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park. It is a wide and long beach surrounded by pine trees. It is one of the destinations for surfers, both Thais and foreigners who choose to surf. The beach itself is 9 kilometers long and the waves are at just the right height. There is also a surf school for beginners to teach beginners as well.
When it comes to Khao Lak’s surfing season, the low season, which lasts from May to September and features strong waves and monsoon rains, can be less expensive than the high season, which runs from October to April and features quiet waves, gorgeous seas, clear water, and occasionally large waves.
