Satun, Southern province near Andaman Sea, Thailand

The province spans across 2,479 square kilometers of land, encompassing 51 islands including Koh Lipe and parts of the Tarutao National Marine Park.

Satun Province emerged from the former Malay sultanate of Kedah and integrated into Thailand's administrative system during the early 20th century reforms.

The province maintains a mixed population of Thai Buddhists and Malay Muslims, each contributing their languages, food traditions, and religious practices.

Travelers reach Satun through domestic flights to the regional airport, while ferries from Pak Bara Pier connect to the surrounding islands.

The Tham Le Stegodon cave system contains fossils of prehistoric elephants and extends four kilometers through limestone mountain ranges.
