Tip from Content Creator
Looking for more stunning beach spots? Freedom Beach is only 13 km away from this resort. It's accessible via a long-tail boat or via a steep downhill walk. We chose the short and steep path over the longer and steeper one to beat the crowd. You have to pay 200 THB (5.58 USD) per person (& you get two bottles of water with it). At the beach, enjoy the beautiful shore and some smoothie bars. I also recommend a smaller beach that's behind the rocks. It's sooo beautiful and less crowded because no one wants to walk over rocks.
