The wonders of this magnificiant place need to be seen in person inorder to properly grasp its true beauty.
A little slice of heaven, Khanom, has yet to be discovered by most foreign tourists. This unspoiled tropical paradise has over eight miles of pristine tranquil beaches which stretch out alongside the northern mountains of Nakorn Si Thammarat province. Although tourism is significant in Khanom, most visitors are Thai nationals as foreigners have not yet discovered Khanom.
Khanom is renowned for its natural beauty and white sandy beaches. The area is lined with picturesque coconut trees and crystal clear blue water gently laps the shoreline. A little known fact about Khanom is that the area is the breeding grounds for the very rare pink dolphins called Sousa Chinensis. Visitors to Khanom have the rare opportunity to view these nearly extinct creatures which are thought to be a unique subspecies of the Chinese white dolphin.
The magnificent beaches are not Khanom's sole attractions. In fact, the main attractions of this charming place just might be the area's simplicity. This sleepy little village has not been inundated with huge condos or mega-malls. You won't find any go-go bars or discos, no touts, hawkers or suit making shops. What you will find are warm, friendly locals that smile and wave as you ride your bicycle around town.
There are also two extraordinary caves and five breathtaking waterfalls which border the north end of the Khao Luang National Park. The park is also a great destination.
Khanom also has sea golf. Yes ... sea golf. From April until July, the locals decided that when the low tides drain the entire bay for most of the day that they should take advantage of the smooth sandy bottom. So they created a temporary golf course. For the past several years there have even been tournaments!
There is so much more to discover in this tropical paradise. Visit Khanom the next time you vacation in Thailand, or contact us for more information on hotels or property for sale in Khanom, Thailand!
