Phang Nga, Beautiful and unique, 'Hat Nang Thong', an unseen place in Phang Nga, has a black sand beach found only a few places in the world. It is a must-see check-in point when visiting Khao Lak. Nang Thong Beach, Kukkak Subdistrict, Takua Pa District, Phang Nga Province is a beach where sometimes the sand is black, which is strangely beautiful. There are only a few places in the world that can find it. Especially when the sea level is at its lowest, you will see a wide area of ??black sand, so it is called "Black Sand Beach". This black color is "tin ore" that has been washed up on the beach by the waves and pulled back into the sea, alternating back and forth until it becomes a black sand beach. It is a must-see check-in point when visiting Khao Lak. In the past, this area along the coast of Takua Pa District used to be a tin mining industry. When the waves wash up the tin ore, the villagers will scoop it up and pile it up, then separate the sand to leave only the black color before taking it to sell. In addition to the black sand beach at Nang Thong Beach, nearby is a sunset viewpoint or the last light of the day. Looking out into the Andaman Sea, you will see the Khao Lak Lighthouse, located on a pile of rocks in front of the beach. It was built after the tsunami in 2004 to warn of danger at sea and take care of tourists. It has now become another popular spot for tourists to enjoy the evening view and wait to see the sun set. It is a beautiful and impressive image. Source: Thai News Agency
