With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up all that Ko Kood, 25 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights starting with Klong Chao Beach, Wat Ao Phrao and Klong Prao Beach. Laem Sing is another wonderful option. It’s 60 miles away and has an array of fun things to do. Namtok Phlio National Park, Hat Laem Sing Beach and Pliw Waterfall are just the start.
