Laem Pakarang, in Phang Nga province, consists of an undeveloped sandy beach and spit with dead coral flats and mud that are exposed at low tide. Casuarina pine and palm trees line the beach and inland there are coconut plantations, lagoons and scrubland, making this a peaceful and scenic place with few visitors even though there are large numbers of tourists nearby at Khao Lak.

The coastal wetlands here are one of the best and most accessible shorebird watching sites in Southern Thailand, consistently playing host to a few species that are scarce elsewhere and while the inland areas are not exactly one of Thailand's prime birdwatching destinations, it does allow for a good morning or afternoon's birding if on holiday with non-birding companions in the nearby tourist areas of Khao Lak or Phuket. In fact quite a large bird list can be accumulated in this area, and particularly during migratory times it could turn up a few surprises.  (ThaiBirding.com)

We visited this peaceful beach in the afternoon in search of the last few shorebirds that we had not yet found at other locations.  Not only did we have success in finding the birds, we also found a beautiful location, especially as the fishing boats were returning from their day out in deeper water.
