Baan Krut beach is a long white sandy bay that stretches Northward towards the headland upon which stands a Grand temple erected in honour of His Majesty The King. The area has been subject to much controversy recently regarding plans to build an electricity plant now scheduled to begin construction in 2005. There is a large fishing community as well as a substantial area of coral reef that surround this designated spot on which these plans could have devastating effects. Baan Krut is the perfect place to relax as this unspoiled town is far from disturbances and is off the beaten track. There is also the nearby local market, fishing villages, temple, caves and the waterfall , all worth a visit.
Dive sites are varied and therefore suited to the demands of varying courses.
