2025 Khura Buri Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#Travel to save the world Sri Phang Nga National Park is located in Kapong District, Phang Nga Province. It covers a rich tropical forest area. The terrain is a complex mountain range. It is the source of important streams of the province. It is also a habitat for various plants and wildlife. One of the park's highlights is "Tam Nang Waterfall", a large waterfall that is beautiful and has a good amount of water all year round. It is suitable for swimming and relaxing. There is also Ton Ton Sai Waterfall, which is in the middle of a large forest. It has a shady and peaceful atmosphere. It is suitable for short nature walks. Sri Phang Nga National Park is also a famous bird watching spot. Both rare and endemic birds can be found, such as the bald eagle, kingfisher, and many types of hornbills. Nature walks on well-prepared trails allow visitors to experience the tropical forest ecosystem up close. In terms of facilities, the park offers bungalows, a camping ground, and a tourist center that provides basic information about the area. For safety, tourists should prepare mosquito repellent, hiking shoes, and clothing suitable for the weather, which is quite humid all year round. The best time to visit is between November and April, which is the dry season. The weather is cool and comfortable. Hiking is convenient. Sri Phang Nga National Park is perfect for those who want to experience nature in a peaceful atmosphere, away from the hustle and bustle of big cities. It is another destination that should not be missed for nature lovers and adventurers in the southern part of Thailand. I highly recommend it.

#Where to travel this summer Colors under the sea, 7-colored sea fans at Koh Rom, Kura Buri District, Phang Nga Province Kura Buri District, Phang Nga Province, is a district with a variety of nature, both forests and islands, where nature lovers like to escape from the bright lights to enjoy rare nature. Koh Rom is not far from "Kura Buri Pier". It takes about 40 minutes to travel from the pier by long-tail boat. This is a small island that cannot be accessed. The water currents change all the time. And because it is close to the shore, the sea water is not as clear as Surin or Similan Islands. But here, we can dive to see colorful sea fans on days when the water level is good. Sea fans are a type of "marine animals" that do not have backbones. Many people may think that they are underwater plants because they cling to rocks and do not move. Sea fans like to live where there are currents because the currents help bring food to them and help carry away waste. Therefore, we found a lot of sea fans here. And because sea fans are like a home for small sea animals Therefore, there are many small fish. It can be called a paradise. . The corals at this point have many colors such as white, red, yellow, orange, purple, blue and gold, including groups of sea anemones that are home to clownfish. . When going to dive and see the corals at Koh Rom, you should have an expert guide to go with you for safety while snorkeling and to avoid affecting the corals. We traveled by boat (chartered) with a guide from Greenview Tour or if you are staying at Koh Phra Thong, you can also contact the boat with the hotel. #SouthernTeam #PhangNga #KuraBuri

"Kuraburi" It is the name of 1 of 8 districts of Phang Nga Province, connected to Ranong Province. Most tourists often pass through and do not know much about #Kuraburi. In this post, we will introduce our friends to this city more, making your trip to Kuraburi more colorful than stopping at a gas station and passing by. #KuraburiTouristAttractions 1. Amazing diving, visiting the Moken area at Surin Island - Of course, many people have traveled to the Surin Islands and the Moken village, but many do not know that Surin Island is actually in Kuraburi District.

Whether it's a day trip or an overnight trip (we recommend splitting it into 1 night on Surin Island) Note: Surin Island is open for visits from October 15 - May 15 of every year. 2. Bamboo rafting to find heart-shaped rocks at Tham Morakot - The clear green water that sparkles in the sunlight during the rainy season is a gift from the lush forests and mountains. Villagers use this place to go bamboo rafting to see the clear stream and the freshness of the plants during the rainy season. The clear stream that flows slowly and quickly creates fun and relaxation for many tourists. Be amazed by the heart-shaped stone field with thousands of rocks, adding color to the journey rather than sleeping in your room waiting for the rain. // Tham Morakot is open for rafting from around June to September of every year. 3. Visit the grasslands and look at the horizon of the sea of ​​stars at Koh Phra Thong - A dream destination for nature lovers Because Koh Phra Thong consists of a variety of natural scenery and activities, such as a large savannah grassland in the middle of the island, a calm sea and beach, a romantic atmosphere of the sunset in the evening, a night sky full of stars, and complete coral reefs under the sea. - To get to Koh Phra Thong, you must take a boat at Kuraburi Pier or Thung La-ong Pier. Currently, there are no regular boats to the island. Therefore, traveling to the island will be by long-tail boat (it is recommended to travel with a minimum of 4 people to save on sharing the boat fare). As for accommodation on the island, there are more varieties, including Home Stay, Camping, and Resort. Note: Koh Surin should be traveled during November - April. 4.

Evening paradise at Ao Khoi Beach - It is not just forests and mountains in Kuraburi. The beautiful sea and evening atmosphere here are also beautiful. Ao Khoi (Pei means small shrimp used to make shrimp paste) has a sandy beach, but what is unique is that it is a large round rock that has been polished by the current, arranging small and large rocks to look unusual. It is especially beautiful at sunset. // Ao Khoi Beach is far from Kuraburi city. Go to Ranong for about 15 km. 8. Cool off and relax at Suan Mai Waterfall - Suan Mai Waterfall is about 17 km from Kura town. It is a medium-sized waterfall divided into three levels: the first level is a stream, the second level is a weir, and the third level is a waterfall. The water here is very clear and refreshing. The smell of the forest and the smell of the water is filled with oxygen. And most importantly, there are almost no people. But don't worry because this place is taken care of by friendly park officials. 9.

City Bar, Ban Tung La-ong, Kura Buri District, Phang Nga Province, a new restaurant next to Tung La-ong Pier, Kura Buri District, Phang Nga Province, a beautiful restaurant with a beautiful view Today, let's try a newly opened restaurant that serves seafood and various drinks at Tung La-ong Pier. City Bar is a loft-style restaurant with two floors. We recommend the second floor where you can see the sea and Koh Phra Thong. There are many recommended dishes. We ordered interesting menus from the restaurant, including: - Steamed black crab with fresh milk, with the smoothness of fresh milk, which goes well with the dense crab eggs. - Steamed black crab with seafood sauce (2 menus included, 700 grams of black crab, 4 pieces, 400 baht) - Shrimp curry, with the richness of coconut milk, 100 baht - Fried sea bass with fish sauce, I like the crispiness that is fried well, along with the sauce that you can choose to pour or pour yourself, 250 baht We went during the day when the weather was quite nice. The wind is cool because it is next to the sea (it should be beautiful in the evening as well). City Bar is located next to Tung La-ong Bridge, Kuraburi District. It is about 15 kilometers from the main Phetkasem Road. It is considered a relaxing drive. Open every day from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. #Recommend delicious restaurants #Thailand #Southern team #Phang Nga

Since childhood, I have dreamed of traveling to the southern sea at least once in my life. This summer, I chose to go to Phuket and bought a one-day trip to Similan Island. This is one of the most beautiful islands in Thailand and is ranked as one of the best diving spots in the world. It is located in Phang Nga Province. The spot where we took the picture is Island No. 8 (Similan Island) - the highlight is the Sail Rock, the symbol of the Similan Islands. There is also a beautiful panoramic viewpoint. What we like the most is 🌊 the crystal clear blue sea water and the white, soft, fine sand beach. It is truly flawless and worth waiting for this trip all year. ⏰ Open for tourism season: October 15 - May 15 of each year (closed during the monsoon season to restore nature) 🤿 Popular activities: Snorkeling, Scuba Diving, Relaxing on the beach, Light hiking to enjoy the view 💖 Highlights: It is a conservation area, so the number of visitors per day is limited.

#TravelEco Koh Miang, the gem of the Similan Islands If you are looking for a little paradise in the middle of the Andaman Sea, this is the place. “Koh Miang” or “Koh Si”, one of the most beautiful islands in the Similan Islands, Phang Nga Province, is ready to charm you with its white sandy beaches, crystal clear water that you can see fish swimming under the water’s surface, and tranquility that is hard to find anywhere else. What makes Koh Miang so charming? Hat Na – The legendary princess beach that is white, smooth, soft, and the water is crystal clear like a painting. It is perfect for walking, taking pictures, or just lying down and listening to the sound of the waves. Hat Lek – A secret spot that is quieter than Hat Na. Walk a short distance along the nature trail and you will find a private corner with beautiful coral reefs for snorkeling. Lan Kha Luang Viewpoint – If you walk to the top, this point will give you a panoramic view of the Similan Islands that is so beautiful that you will have to grab your camera every second. What is the atmosphere on the island like? There are no luxury hotels here, no cars, only the sound of the wind, waves, and nature surrounding you. Tourists who stay overnight will get to experience nature up close, with wooden houses in the park. and a camping ground under the shade of a large tree Advice before traveling: Come during November to May because the sea is calm and the water is the clearest Book accommodation in advance because there are very limited numbers Do not litter, do not catch coral, and do not forget to respect nature If you like beautiful, quiet, and uncrowded seas, Koh Miang is one of the "good things that must be shared". It is truly an escape from the city to relax with nature in a way that you will never forget. I recommend it.

This place is famous for its crystal clear water, very clear, fine sand, soft white sand, beautiful corals, many kinds of fish, and the highlight is the sea turtle gang that shows off up close. 🐢 🛥️Travel: To travel to Similan Island, we can choose to buy a tour package from various companies with many types to choose from. But the most popular is the one-day trip (dive at 2 islands, land at 2 islands). You can board the boat at Thap Lamu Pier. Travel by speedboat or catamaran speedboat, which takes about 1-2 hours, depending on the waves and sea wind. 🌊 The package price is around 1800-2500 ฿, including 3 meals, drinking water, soft drinks, snacks, fruits, park entrance fees, and a guide throughout the trip.

🌊✨A dreamy liveaboard beyond imagination! 6 days and 5 nights on the Water Spirit Thailand Andaman Sea trip (except for the network, perfect!) Just finished the "Water Spirit" Thailand liveaboard from 4.18 to 4.23, and I must write a long article to praise it! The overall experience is almost perfect. Except for the unstable network signal on the ship (but this also made me completely put down my phone and enjoy the holiday), everything else is far beyond expectations! 1. Professional and caring team The crew and diving instructor team are definitely the highlights of this trip! From the warm welcome when boarding the ship to the detailed itinerary explanation every day, you can feel their professionalism and dedication. The dive guide is very familiar with the sea area and took us to find hidden coral groups, clownfish families, and even fortunately encountered whale sharks! The staff will also take the initiative to help adjust the equipment, take pictures, and share interesting diving stories at dinner in the evening, as friendly as friends 2. Super comfortable life on the boat The hull is more spacious than expected, the cabin is clean and tidy, the air conditioning is powerful, and the bed is comfortable. The lazy sofa and observation deck on the deck are the perfect places to relax. Lying on them in the evening to watch the sunset is breathtaking! The food is also worthy of praise - Thai seafood, Tom Yum soup, fresh fruits, and even Chinese fried rice are prepared every day. You don't have to worry about not getting used to it. 3. Full marks for diving experience The choice of diving sites is great! We went to Similan, Richelieu Reef, and Surin Islands. The visibility is super high, the corals are healthy, and there are so many fish that it feels like we are filming Finding Nemo. The equipment on the boat is well maintained, the cylinders are inflated quickly, and there is a special camera washing area. The dive guide will group the team members according to their level, so both novices and veterans can have fun. Seeing the luminous plankton during night diving is a magical moment! 4. Touched by the attention to detail Many small details impressed me: ✅ Hot towels and ginger tea after returning to the boat every day ✅ Free seasickness medicine and sunscreen mud (environmentally friendly!) ✅ Small souvenir gifts before leaving the boat (handmade shell keychains are super cute) ✅ Photographers share all underwater photos and videos for free A little suggestion: If you have a strong need for the Internet, you can rent a Thai portable WiFi in advance, but to be honest, the days without the Internet are more relaxing~ Summary: If the full score is 10 points, I am willing to give the Water Spirit 9.9 points (minus 0.1 points because of the network haha)! I have recommended it to all diving enthusiasts around me, and I will definitely choose them again next time I go to the Maldives for a liveaboard! #Similan Islands》similan #boatboard
