Not really a fan of Bang Saphan beaches, except for Ban Krut.

 

Photos of area look nice with a

couple coffee shops.  Maybe take a peek today or tomorrow.

 

Only 1.5 hrs away.

The place is beautiful but very basic and small compared to most beaches around. Three restaurants on the beach serving above average sea food and Isaan food. We preferred the last one in the row. 

Can get full on weekends but sleepy and laid back most weekday afternoons. 

I really wonder why it is so far up on google maps.

All a bit of a plus for us.  Like the look of the 'bay' and outcropping/stones.  Add some contrast vs long stretches of nothing but sand, which is kind of boring at times.

yes, that´s the most popular 2022 according to the polls. 3 persons voted for that one, and the three other only got 2 votes each.

I like that beach but there are better around, I think that the bay makes it nice.

The bay at low tide would be decent for a swim, especially with kids, as protected from both side.  A little rough today around noon-ish.

 

 

From the coffee shop (hotel next door) and about the only thing at the bay, aside from few smaller vendors.

 

Around the corner, southward, Boats R Us
