Koh Phayam is a small island in Ranong province, off the Andaman coast of southern Thailand, with beaches, forest and a few villages spread along its shores. Getting there is by boat from the mainland, with Ranong as the usual departure point, so the crossing is the first part of the journey. MP Resort Koh Payam is set 80 m from the beach, so the sea is close at hand for days spent in the water and on the sand.

The Hin Talu viewpoint, 600 m from the resort, is an easy first outing for a view over the island's coastline. The Koh Phayam Pier, the island's ferry terminal, is 2.4 km away, and it is where boats from the mainland come ashore. Ao Yai Beach, 2.6 km from the resort, and Ao Khao Kwai Beach (North), 1.9 km away, are other beaches to explore.

A good day here starts with the walk up to Hin Talu in the morning, then time on the beach close to the resort, and the afternoon on the longer beach at Ao Yai. The resort works as a base for days spent by the water rather than a busy town, with the sea and the island's beaches never far away.
