Khao Lak is a stretch of Thailand's Andaman coast in Phang Nga province, where forested hills run down toward long sandy beaches. The resort is in the Bang Niang area, a village and beach district with an afternoon market, and the coast here combines a beach stay with forest trails and waterfalls close by, so both the sea and the forest are within a short distance.

The International Tsunami Museum is 850 m away, and its exhibits cover the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami that struck this coast hard. Bang Niang Beach is 1.3 km away, Khuk Khak Beach is close by, and Ton Chong Fa Waterfall lies 4.2 km away in the forest. Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park, 5.5 km away, offers rainforest trails, and Khao Lak Mini Golf is also nearby. Phuket International Airport is 62.9 km away, while Krabi International Airport is further away.

A day could begin at the Tsunami Museum, continue to Bang Niang Beach and the afternoon market, and end with the waterfall trails in the national park. Boat trips to the Similan Islands leave from this coast, so the sea is part of the plan for anyone who wants to go further, and the market is a good place to see local life.
