Visiting essentials
Access
By boatConfirm the permitted landing and return arrangements before departure.
About this place
The wet stones become glossy and show varied patterns, giving this shore a different character from the sandy islands around Ko Lipe. The pebbles are part of the protected natural landscape: leave them in place rather than collecting or rearranging them. This is an island stop within Ko Sarai Subdistrict, not a mainland beach.
Nearby & related places
Ko Sarai Subdistrict
Ko Sarai is an island subdistrict of Mueang Satun spanning several Andaman island groups, including the Tarutao and Adang–Rawi–Lipe areas.
Adang-Rawi Archipelago
The Adang-Rawi Archipelago is the western island group of the Tarutao marine area, combining forested Adang and Rawi with the visitor hub of Ko Lipe.
Plan your visit
Visit by boat on a locally arranged island outing, subject to park permission and sea conditions. Confirm whether the shore stop and any southern snorkelling site are both open; they can have different restrictions. The 2026 park notice kept the island accessible while closing its southern snorkelling area from June to September, so a blanket claim that the whole island closes every monsoon is misleading.
