Laem Son National Park

The park extends over 315 square kilometers along the western coast of Thailand, featuring mangrove forests, coral reefs, and white sand beaches.

The Thai government established Laem Son National Park in 1983 to protect its coastal ecosystems and marine environments spanning 100 kilometers of shoreline.

Local communities near the park maintain traditional fishing practices while supporting conservation efforts through sustainable tourism initiatives in the protected areas.

Visitors can access the park through Ranong province, with optimal visiting conditions occurring between November and April during the dry season.

Long-tailed macaques on the islands of Piak Nam Yai and Thao demonstrate tool use behavior by employing stones to crack open shellfish.
