Khao Lak

Thailand

A 4-day trip to Khao Lak

Uncluttered Andaman beaches and raw rainforest gateway without the Phuket clamor

Stretching along a 25-kilometer ribbon of golden coastline an hour north of Phuket, Khao Lak is mainland Thailand's premier antidote to package-tourism frenzy. Where neighboring Phuket leans into neon nightlife and dense high-rises, Khao Lak is defined by strict low-rise building codes, sweeping national parks, quiet surf breaks, and easy departures for the world-class dive waters of the Similan and Surin Islands.
