It's quite nice here, especially empty if you come early. Unfortunately everything is full of old ropes and fishing nets. Also plastic bottles etc. I walked through the “jungle” and as of April 2025 it was easily doable.

As you are walking the backroads to get towards the beach you will see a sign. When translated it reveals that the park is closed.

After getting lost around the island to get to this beach you realize that the Thais are dirty and scammers, they are supposed to charge you 200 bahts for the maintenance, care and cleaning of the beaches, and the only thing they do is fill their pockets with money, when you move a little away from the tourist beaches the only thing you find is garbage, and garbage generated by the Thais themselves since I highly doubt that the tourist throws on the beaches ropes and fishing elements.

The path there is a bit hidden and leads through a lot of bushes. The beach is not big, but it is very beautiful and there are very, very few people (for 2 hours there were only 5 of us). The water is very clear and you can also do some nice snorkeling there. Unfortunately there is a lot of rubbish in one corner, which mainly consists of old and broken fishing nets.
