Ao Chong Khad

Ao Chong Khad is a beach in Kura with fine white sand and clear water along a quiet coastline. The shoreline is framed by rock formations that create natural interest and shelter for marine life.

The beach was once a quiet fishing village before tourism gradually developed here in the late 20th century. This growth shaped how the place looks today while fishing communities remained central to local life.

Local fishermen work here using traditional methods you can watch from the shore. The beach is woven into their daily routine, where nets are mended and catches are sorted.

You can reach the beach by car or boat, with accommodations and rentals available year-round in nearby villages. The best time to explore is at low tide, when the natural rock pools become accessible.

The rock pools at low tide trap small marine creatures that are otherwise hidden from view. This natural feature turns a visit into a chance to see animals you would not normally encounter.
