This is the province located
at the top of a long bay, bordered on the east by
Krabi and on the west Phuket Island. Besides
being a scenic area full of karsts hills, the
province is unimportant to the locals.
The
numerous small towns serve as departure points for other
destinations. Example-
Khurapuri- for Surin and the
Similan Islands.
Takua Pa - for Khao Sok and
Surat Thani
Thai Muang - to view turtle
laying eggs
Ao Phangnga - for
views of famous cliffs and limestone
formations.
A good example of
how the imagination can run wild. This
formation here suppose to have some
resemblances to the profile of a shaggie

The fishing village
here, Ko Panyi occupied by Malay muslim
have their houses perching against the
edge of the cliff for better protection
from the elements.
They have also kept
up with the times, farming fishes instead
of depending on the sea and the weather
for their income. Their available time
will spent ferrying tourists around the
bay!
They have convenient
caves that the tourist can pass through
with the boat. There are quite a few of
such caves suitable for boating and
canoeing.
Behind the bay is a
mountainous region. Waterfalls that are noted in
this Province are :-
