To be honest I would trust that a grab is going to come and get you from Emerald Pool or the hot springs They are a fair way out and I am sure if they take you there they would want to go back to the main areas where they could be making money Us personally I wouldn’t risk sitting there waiting for a grab to come and pick us up

Your welcome 🙏

Hey Charles we thought about it but after watching some other videos decided against it, they looked scary lol

It sure is and it is very sad :(

Thank you

It sure is :) Are you on Koh Samui now ?

@@robshaztravels I wish but have been to Koh Samui many times (probably more than 10 times) and always opt to stay in/on Choengmon

@@mindless-confusion awesome ;)

Thank you Yes it sure was and so yummy

Thank you so much ☺️

Nang Thong beach isn’t too bad especially with the easterly on shore winds that are around November to April There are some rocky parts but only bad on low tide Defiantly a beach worth visiting Glad you enjoyed the video :) Let us know what you thought of the beach after your visit :) Happy travels

@@robshaztravels How nice of you to reply! I forgot to mention that we are looking for very calm waters. That is why, although beautiful, the surf beach that you loved would not be for us. I assume the winds you mention make it cooler but we will still find calm waters? Thank you so much! Linda

Your very welcome 🙏 There is no surf down that end of town so the beaches there are perfect for calm But again it has to be between November and April while the winds are blowing from the east so the ocean is beautiful and flat When the winds blow onshore from the west the beach is choppy and sometimes unpleasant We find November to March the best time to go as it’s not too humid yet but we also found when we went last year there was still a bit of rain about in November but no one is the weather gods so we just don’t know what’s going to happen on any given day

@@robshaztravels We plan to go in January or February so that sounds just right! I should tell you the reason we are trying to find a new beach destination. We usually go to Koh Jum. We love it. But we are an older couple, age 82 and 76. We need to have easier access to health care if we need it. The islands are wonderful but we think we need to make a change. We were in Khao Lak about 8 years ago and liked it. But if you have any other locations on the mainland besides Khao Lak to suggest from your experience, that would be welcome. Calm waters and access to health care if we need it. Thank you so very much! Linda

@@620EDA so happy to hear you are still travelling that is wonderful for the soul. I hope I am still travelling in 25 years too x Khao Lak sounds perfect for January February and a lot of restaurants and shops around We haven’t been yet but I hear Hua Hin is nice but that is best on low season as the beach faces the other way so May to October but you would also be stuck inside if it’s raining too much We are planning some trips to Hua Hin and Jontiem in the coming months so don’t forget to subscribe and click the bell to get notified of your new videos :)

The hotel we stayed in was right on the beach it was only a short walk from where the boat dropped us off

The weather is changing every year so it’s hard to say but September is usually their wettest month

Brilliant I hope you have a fabulous trip - we might see you there, we’re planning on heading back and doing some of the stuff we didn’t do last time :)

@robshaztravels great video, looks great, haven't been to khao lak before, We're there for 6 nights then travel to phuket. Our 3 time to Thailand. 👌

@@user-xc7gb8gj6r glad you liked the video - have an amazing trip

Thank you ka 🙏

That’s fair enough everyone has their own views. We are tourist so we enjoyed it. 😄

We loved Similan islands and also memories beach and the tsunami memorial There was still stuff to do there that we next got to do so we are looking forward to go back We wouldn’t recommend what not to do because everyone is different and what I like or dislike may differ from you Didn’t get to do the bamboo rafting but I think that would be awesome Have a great trip

Yes you do have to show passport but we just showed a copy of it on my phone :) You can ask a songthaew driver to take you there and maybe pay him to wait for you to take you back to your hotel /)

Thank you 🙏

Thank you 🙏

Thank you 🙏

That’s fantastic we are glad the video helped :) When are are heading to Khao Lak

Glad it was helpful!

A lot of the families take the boardwalk it’s more of an adventure

Thank you We’ve decided you need at least 6 days in an area so you can really get around and check the place out We hope you enjoy your trip to Rawai

Thanks we are glad your enjoying the series April last year the weather was fabulous we didn’t really get much weather until we went to Phuket in May and the winds changed to onshore and we had a few rainy days But nothing to keep us inside for days on end :)

We’re heading back to Phuket in 2 weeks and praying the weather holds off that’s all you can do 😂

@@robshaztravels Thanks - that's good to know, I hope it's similar this year!!

@@robshaztravels Here's hoping! Enjoy your trip!

@@ILoveMusic916 thank you You too Koh Lanta is a lovely place Not so built up like Phuket and that’s why we love it

Fair enough. Beauty as they say is in the eye of the beholder 😄

We’re glad you enjoyed it

Thanks Floyd, it sure does that’s why we find ourselves always going back

Hi Max and Jacqui. Thanks 🙏 for that we loved getting up and having the place to ourselves for a short minute. We have been keeping up with your South American tours looks amazing 🙌🙏

We find the weather quite nice in May there may be a shower or 2 but nothing like the some other months The winds are usually on shore by May

Hey thanks for the question We like May because it is out of the high season and it’s quite a bit cheaper for accomodation and flights The winds had started to change so they were on shore which changes the calmness of the seas didn’t have too much issue with the rain but who knows what the weather will do :)

Sorry we can’t remember. I believe it was around 3000 baht. Hope that helps a bit

Hahaha cheers thanks for watching we hope you get some good tips for your travels. Happy to answer any questions tough questions have. Have subscribed to your channel :)

Nah we were ok wading through the water it was an adventure :)

We rented the booked through a company called Khao Lak Motorbike Rental not far from Bang Niang Market. The lady was lovely to deal with. Their number is +66 89 647 3893. The phone holder came with it but we’re not sure if all their bikes have them Enjoy your trip 🤗

@@robshaztravels amazing thank you. I don’t suppose you remember how much they charged you per day ?

We paid 350baht per day :)

For where ?

Thanks Floyd. Yes it really is a little piece of paradise 🙏🍻

We hope you have a great trip. We booked our driver through Facebook. They are called Caring Taxi Khao Lak. They met us at the airport and were easy to deal with. Hope that helps you.

Hello. Thanks for the message we had a good stay at Sunset Resort. The location, beach, pool and room were all really good. We didn’t use the restaurant to much but we were happy with the Resort

We used Caring Taxi Khao Lak. We found them on Facebook. Contact number for them is +66 93 620 3789
