the Khao Lak-Lumru National Park in the South for about 20 kilometres
northwards, starting with Sunset
Beach, Nang-Thong Beach,
Bang Niang Beach, Khukkak
Beach, Pak Wib Beach
and Bangsak Beach in
the very North. A single beach, namely Khao
Lak Beach is located south of and adjacent to Khaolak Lamru
National Park.
During the last years, the number of resorts along
the coast increased to more than 50, offering a choice for everybody's
taste from simple bungalows and a wide choice of middle-class
hotels and resorts to some properties in the 5- star category.
Local laws do not permit buildings, that are higher than the
coconut palms, a law protecting Khaolak from the negative impacts
of tourism so far.

in many different ways like Ko Lak, Khaolak, Khao Lack, Kao Lak, Kau Lac, Khao-Lak,
Kao Lak, Kao Luk, Kao Lac, Kao Lack, Khao Luk, Kho Lak, Khao Lac, Kau Lak and
