It is the only place in Khao Lak with a real walk: 20 minutes along the headland to a viewpoint over the bay. Quiet, free of crowds, and good at sunrise.
How to visit it well
- Do the cliff trail early; it is exposed by 10am.
- The small waterfall is seasonal — dry from March.
- Turtle nesting is monitored; do not walk the beach after dark in season.
