Pak Weep and Bang Sak
Beaches in the Khao Lak Area
These two beaches north of
the main areas of Khao Lak are favorites for
beach combers and people who enjoy long
quiet strolls on the beach.
PakWeep Beach (sometimes
Pakweeb, Pakweep, Pak Weeb) is defined by
the northern coastline of Cape Pakarang and
includes the Ao Thong Beach (or Oaw Thong)
area. Bang Sak Beach begins as the
coastline turns northward.
Bang Sak Beach [photo top
right of this page] is well known for the
Haadson Resort and the street of small Thai
restaurants along the beach front.
Pakweeb
Beach is known for the coral and shells that
wash up on the beach overnight - thus the
favor of beach combers. Along
Pakweeb Beach you will find the LeMeridien,
Similana and Sarojin Resorts as well as a
growning number of smaller bungalow resorts.
Beach restaurants are also
found in this area - though in lesser
density than along Bang Sak Beach.
