Something mysterious has washed up on Phuket’s Nai Yang Beach, and it could be explosive.


The Third Naval Region’s ordnance disposal team was scheduled to haul away the metallic, torpedo-shaped object on Wednesday.

 

Visible only at low tide, it’s been meanwhile fenced off and marked as a hazard with a buoy.

 

The object – five metres long and 60 centimetres in diameter – was spotted on Tuesday in the tidal sands of Sirinat National Park.

 

It’s covered in rust and barnacles.

 

Photos of the object circulating on the social media have drawn suggestions it’s an old military torpedo or a vessel used in mining minerals.
