"The small beach situated on the west side of Phayam island was a delightful surprise. The beach is adorned with a plethora of naturally formed rocks that create picturesque photo opportunities, especially during the tranquil evening hours before and during sunset. I highly recommend visiting this beach if you plan on staying in Koh Phayam for a night or two. During our stay ..."
