Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park

Phraya Nakhon Cave, Laem Sala Beach & the Mountain of Three Hundred Peaks

Discover Thailand’s first coastal national park, a landscape where dramatic limestone peaks rise from coastal plains, expansive wetlands teem with life, and ancient caves house regal surprises. Named “Mountain of Three Hundred Peaks”, Khao Sam Roi Yot impresses with its jagged scenery, the country’s largest freshwater marsh, and the iconic Phraya Nakhon Cave — home to a royal pavilion illuminated by sunlight through a natural skylight.
