Sandy beach Thai Muang, is also part of the National Park, is one of the few in Thailand, reached the level of five stars. It really is a fantastic place: on the beach, you can not just sunbathing and swimming, coral reefs, just 700 meters from the shore makes it a chic venue for diving and snorkeling.

The beach is home to two species of sea turtles, which are under state protection. They lay their eggs in the sand, and then hatched turtles emerging from predators themselves go into the sea. Every year the number of surviving young individuals is reduced, and scientists must take the eggs out of the sand and placed in a special nursery where the marine life is not threatened. After the little bug hatch and gain strength, they are released to float freely.

At the end of Thai Muang Beach is located on the cliff Yyak, which means "giant face." Indeed, from a certain angle to the natural patterns it resemble a human face. From the top of a cliff with an excellent view of the beach and the surrounding open spaces.
