Beach overall scores
Monkey Beach (Satun) is located outside the Ao Molae settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Ko Batong island and the correct question is not how to get to Monkey Beach, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"This serene beach is a true haven for those seeking relaxation. Be sure to have your national ticket on hand and stay alert for the cheeky monkeys who are known to snatch belongings from unsuspecting travelers. In packs, they can become quite assertive and vocal, so be cautious and keep a watchful eye on your belongings."
Nicolette Dusseau
"Undoubtedly, this location is a lively and enjoyable destination, boasting stunning ivory sand and pristine, transparent waters. The name monkey beach is not without merit, as the monkeys inhabiting the area are notorious for their thievery. It is imperative to remain vigilant and keep a watchful eye on your belongings, as they can be snatched away in the blink of an eye. Ho..."
