Detail Maps Kho Khao Island

Khao Lak is located about 50 kilometres north of Koh Phuket Island on the mainland in Phang Nga province. Most of its sandy beaches stretch from the Khaolak-Lumru National Park in the South for about 20 kilometres northwards, starting with Sunset Beach, Nang Tong Beach, Bangniang Beach, Khuk Khak Beach, Pak Wib Beach and Bangsak Beach in the very North. Close by, in Baan Naam Kem Village, is the small ferry port to Koh Kho Khao Island, which is the northern end of the Khao Lak region. The old tin mining town of Takuapa is just a few kilometres further on. A single beach, namely Khaolak Beach is located south of and adjacent to Khaolak Lamru National Park.

Koh Kho Khao Island lies off the coast of Takuapa to the North of Khaolak. Koh Kor Kao Island's western coast has endless beaches lined by Casuarina trees while the interior is covered by grassland. Several wild animals dwell Kho Koh Khao Island, and sea turtles use to lay their eggs in its sands, between November and February.

An extensive flat grassland area close to the northern tip was used as an airfield by the Japanese during World War II and influential people are already talking about an airport on Kho Khor Khao Island.
