After hearing some golfing buddies tell me how nice this beach is , today finally made the trip to check it out - the golf course is a cheap place to play & the beach is a great place for a day out .
It is located on a Thai Naval Base so you enter via a guard post where you're asked to leave some official ID.
The grounds are huge so a car is ideal but a motorcycle will get you around just as well
Make your way to the general direction of the beach and you hit this little hut , where today we were informed the road was closed and we had to ride in a sonthaew.
You ride over a winding mountain road and the views were stunning
Hit the beach area around 9:30 am and a small crowd was making their way
This was Mahatma Gandhi Bucha Day , so a full on holiday
The water was crystal clear
I was really impressed by how clean the beach was.
Had to grab some food for a brekkie and this Pad Kra Pow Gai was sort of OK , 30 baht was spot on.
Sandy Balls Dog got the left overs
Afterward looked around and spotted this wrinkly old white ass
Did a good few hours of swimming , rented a kayak for 100 baht an hour and basically had a good time.
There is a sit down seafood restaurant here and also a series of food vendors
It was now lunchtime and the beach had gotten pretty full.
Grabbed another feed and took a hot and dirty pic of it to share - 230 baht for a full grilled chicken and some somtam.
There are some bungalows on the beach as well that can be rented out , prices are not that great at 700 baht for a small one and 1000 baht for a larger unit - no electricity after 6pm , nor TV or air conditioning.
Back in the water and then the heat and crowds chased us away
So the all important toilet shot to complete the report
Even VIP toilets
This sure is a nice little beach and I hope you enjoy this report.
