BEACH
Ban Krut Village is a good social spot to meet other travelers. The beach is more than 5 kilometers long. The village at the northern section of the beach is the social part, where you will find a wide beach with medium coarse sand. You can swim well in the sea, there are often waves that get higher in easterly winds.
A road usually runs between the accommodations and the beach. In the southern part of the beach this is a narrow road with almost no traffic. The only 2 places directly on the beach, both on the north end, did not make the TreasureBeaches database because of the poor quality of the beach and lodgings. The further south you go the quieter and cleaner the beach becomes.
WHERE TO STAY
We love the nice mix of stays in Ban Krut. In the village, we recommend Ban Rim Haad, basic/mid-range stay with wooden and concrete bungalows in a beautiful spacious garden. The Rachavadee Resort, 3 kilometers south, is located on the quiet part of the beach and is a nice, better mid-range resort with swimming pool. Here, you can admire the fireflies in the evening, because of the trees in the garden of Rachavadee Resort that attract them. Make sure to check the well-known booking sites to see where you want to stay.
In the village there is a good number of restaurants and food stands, but most of the stays have their own places to eat too.
