Pra Pas Beach (Ranong) is located outside the Hat Praphat 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 sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Pra Pas Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"This beach is absolutely stunning and remains largely untouched. It's located approximately 3km from Phetkasem Road and is incredibly peaceful with very few visitors. The only dining option available is a small restaurant located at the end of the beach. As you explore, you'll come across what appears to be a graveyard of trees that have been gradually washed away by the sea."

Nathan Vale

"This beach is truly incredible - it was completely deserted during the day, and in the evening locals would come to take in the stunning sunset and snap some selfies. Plus, the golden fine sand makes it even more picturesque."
