Ko Muk Travel Guide

 jenniferchin Says:  The Amazing Emerald Cave lies behind the sheer cliffs of Koh Muk. I had to swim slowly (some parts in sheer pitch darkness) through small cavity to the cave about 80 metres away. Inside the Emerald Cave, the waters are gentel and sand white, surrounded by high cliffs and... 

 jenniferchin Says:  Absolute best thing to do on Ko Muk (apart from Thai massage by the beach) is to lie down on the sand and catch the sun.Make sure you lather sunblock on yourself before falling asleep :-) And you can't take long naps as you have to turn yourself over to catch the sun ... its... 

 jenniferchin Says:  The one thing that I wanted to do eversince I was in Thailand and I found it here :-)On Had Farang beach, near to the Sawadee bungalows on the right, you can see a sturdy hut-like covered platform. There was no one around there, so I wandered into the restaurant nearby and... 

 dabuwan Says:  I didn't see any big fishes, but many different colourful ones.It seems that sea snakes are not uncommon around Ko Muk; fortunately I didn't see any of them, as they are poisonous and their bite could be lethal. They have a ribbon shape and they are about 1 mt long.

 dabuwan Says:  The Emerald Cave, or "Tham Morakot", is the top attraction on Ko Muk.Located on the rocky western coast of the island, north of Farang beach, this amazing tunnel can be entered by swimming only during low tide. At the end of the 100 mt narrow tunnel there is a stunning... 

 dabuwan Says:  This is one of my mostly beloved beaches ever. The officlal name is Hat Sai Yao, but everybody on Ko Muk name it just "Farang Beach".It is a pleasant 30 min. walk from Ko Muk resort, on the opposite side of the island (on the west coast, thus). It is a real paradise beach:... 

 dabuwan Says:  Ko Muk island is small but has a big varieties of sceneries. The eastern coast is mostly sandy, sometimes almost muddy, especially during low tide.The interiors are green and lush.
