Ao Talo Pa Tai Pa Yang Beach, Koh Rawi

6° 32.7′ N · 99° 13.6′ E

A white-sand beach midway along Koh Rawi's south coast, between the ranger station at the west end and Hat Sai Khao in the east.

Practical

Position: OpenStreetMap beach 'Ao Talo Pa Tai Pa Yang Lek'; the larger bay of Ao Ta Lo Pa Tai Pa Yang lies just east (label 6.54804, 99.24343). The south coast faces Koh Butang and the Rawi Passage, with the strong current the Southeast Asia Pilot warns of. Visitthailandtoday: no village, accommodation or shops on Rawi, so bring water and shade. Land by dinghy from the Rawi south anchorages in calm water. Park fee and the Adang–Rawi seasonal closure apply (see those entries).
