The most mysterious and beautiful sea and sunset viewpoint in Phuket
If anyone plans to visit Phuket, you must have heard the name of a very popular tourist attraction right now, which is "Laem Krating", which is another place to view the sea and the sunset.
It is another one of the most beautiful places in Phuket. And this time, I went to capture the beautiful sea view to share with my friends. In case anyone is hesitating whether to go or not, follow me! ๐ฟ
This time, I chose to go in the morning because I like the morning atmosphere and think that it is not as hot as in the evening, which has more people.
โ
Morning: The weather is not as hot as in the evening / Take pictures of beautiful people
๐Evening: You can see the beautiful sunset.
๐Things to prepare for the trip
๐ It is recommended to wear sneakers because the path up to the viewpoint is quite steep and there are some parts that are quite dangerous. Flip flops or anything else should not be worn.
๐ฅ A bottle of water Because the way to go is quite far and the weather is hot, but there is a constant wind.
โ ๏ธ You shouldn't bring a lot of luggage. It's best to go light and have few items.
๐ You can also bring a hat to protect yourself from the heat, but you have to wear a type with a string to tie around your chin because the wind is very strong.
๐ How to get to Laem Krathing: ๐ Follow Google Maps and pin Laem Krathing: https://goo.gl/maps/32FyEdZ1SQbVJt1M9
๐ Drive along the main road until you reach the entrance to The Nai Harn Phuket Hotel. Drive straight in and pass the side of the hotel (stay on the left).
Then we drive straight until we reach "Baan Laem Krathing Resort". You can park your car before reaching the entrance of the resort and walk along the side of the resort to the beach.
โผ๐ But I chose to park in the resort (I felt safe). This way, the path through the rocks will be shorter. But there are conditions: We have to order food or drinks from the resort for at least 300.- per car (if there are many people, it's worth splitting the cost).
I recommend that you order food after you leave because you'll feel very tired walking back to the car. Order stir-fried basil rice and eat it. It's delicious (there's a bathroom too).
๐คธโโPark your car and start your journey!
Walk down from the resort towards the sea. The path will pass through the rocks first. We walk along the rocks to the right of the beach. Keep walking until you find a hilly path. Then walk up the path.
But be careful. Some points are quite steep or have smooth rocks. It's a bit difficult to walk, but you can walk.
๐Travel time
From the bottom up to the photo spot of Hin Sailboat, Laem Krathing, round trip 1 hour (walk 30 minutes / walk back 30 minutes) excluding stopping to take pictures.
(Walk slowly, don't pressure yourself, you can do it. I confirm.)
โ๏ธโ๏ธ If you ask if I want to go again, I definitely will. It's a bit tiring, but the view is worth it. To be honest, the day I went Add went without any preparation at all, only prepared sneakers
and the shoes were torn before the climb. Add could still walk, just be careful. But luckily, I was exercising recently, so I didn't feel very tired or sore.
I just felt a little bit nervous along the way when looking down, but just calmed down and looked back at my path, and the destination was a piece of cake. โ๏ธโ๏ธ
