Kho Khao Beach
Kho Khao Beach is 85km south of Chumphon Town. Take Highway 41 towards
Lang Suan. Just before Lang Suan turn left onto Road No. 4099 heading
towards Park Nam Lang Suan. After about 6km the 4099 joins the 4002, at
the junction turn left. Follow the 4002 for 8km until Road No. 4019 on
the right to Lamae. The sign for the 4019 is rather small so keep a
watch out. The 4019 forms part of the "Scenic
Route" and you will see these signs along the road.
Follow the "Scenic Route" on road 4019 and the beach will start after about 8km on your left. The road runs parallel with the beach.
Kho Khao is a long wide sandy beach. Trees line the beach which offer shade.
At the southern end of the beach is rocky headland.
On the headland is a seating area which gives a nice view of the beach and offers some shade.
The rocks seem a good place to find shells.
On the headland is a small road leading round to the Prince of Chumphon Shrine at Wat Kho Khao.
Did not find any places round here to eat so best bring a picnic. If you are visiting on a Sunday the nearby Market under the Trees is a great place to buy those shacks.
