Also known as Phang-nga Bay, Ao Phang-nga National Park is one of the most frequented marine national parks in Thailand. About 7.5 km from Phang-Nga Town to the north-east of Phuket, it takes just a 10-minute drive to reach the park via Route 4 and Route 4144. Covering a total area of around 40,000 sq. km, the park includes more than 40 small and large islands. It appears to be much like an inland lake with its north, east and west enclosed by land and its south partly sealed off as well.
The sea here is quite shallow having an average depth of just a few meters, making Ao Phang-nga National Park a safe place to visit anytime of the year. Though, it is still preferable to visit during November to April as the sea is calm, the sky is clear and your trip won’t be interrupted by rain. Still one should not take chances, a Phang-Na car hire is a best solution to almost all the problem that can pop up during a trip. One doesn’t have to rely on public transport and in addition to comfort; our car rental also keep one safe from unnecessary financial burdens through covered inclusions like Collision Damage Waiver and local taxes etc.
