Nai Thon and Layan Beaches
Nai Thon and Layan Beaches Review
Just a few miles north of Bang Thao Bay, follow a smaller highway off the main routes (4030 and 4031) along a scenic coastline reminiscent of California's Pacific Coast Highway. These beaches are good for swimming in the dry season. There's more development on the way, but for now they're two of the island's quiet gems, with more homes than resorts.
