The nature and beach beautiful. Staff here doesn't know english very well, can only communicate with your guide or agency if you need anything. They provide breakfast and dinner but it is was always served cold unfortunately, the second day you loose your appetite :( Make sure about what your reserve cause the agency said we stay in a bungalow we ended up staying in a tent which has nothing in it just mattress,pillow and camp blanket; no sheets or towels.. No electricity between 9am till 6pm..Inspite of all this it's worth to see..
The best snorkeling spots in Thailand
Beautiful beach but a bit dirty
Fine and white sand beach. Calm. There are both tents and bungalow to be rent from the national park. One restaurant that opens for 3 periods. (Breakfast, lunch and dinner) Tents are setting up too close to each other except for 5 special tents that have air-conditions. Some mangroove trees on one side of the beach. Not much to see for snorkeling. One pond, full of beautiful lotus. Also there are some monotors here at Haad Mai Ngam. We chose to stay at Chongkad because it is more convenient and there is one café there.
Mai Ngam beach on North Surin Island is truly an amazing place! Strongly suggest that one avoids booking the 1Day trip to Surin island, in order to avoid the crowds of day travelers from Khaolak & Phuket. Instead, choose to spend a minimum of 2Nights on the island, staying in either the national parks bungalows, or the national parks tents. We have stayed in the tents for three times now, (the 3rd time being this April'18). Of course the tents offers very basic accommodation, with shared communal toilet/bath facilities, and added to this is the poor service quality of the national parks staff...but the natural surroundings make it all worth the stay. The view & setting of Mai Ngam is spectacular! You can swim right off the beach with crystal waters and witness some small fish & coral life. The best snorkeling is done through one of the longtail boat trips booked through the tour company or directly through the national parks service. From Mai Ngam beach, you can take a jungle walk, the trail leads you south over the mountain to the Royal Navy SARS camp, and then further south to the second National parks center at Chong Khad Beach. Do keep in mind that you have to walk back and the trail offers no lights or help points. Thus the walk is best done during the morning, taking 2-3hrs (per way), especially for families with children.
