Prachuap Khiri Khan is a small, nice provincial town located at the southern end of a large bay in Southern Thailand. Many brightly-colored fishing boats are anchoring in the natural harbor that seems to be circular because of towering limestone formations and rocky offshore islands. A very picturesque place, but it is not suitable for swimming. That can be done at either Ao Manao or Ao Noi immediately south or north of the town. 
The road along the coast has been upgraded into a coastal promenade with a chain of lanterns for 2 km. In the evenings food stalls serving excellent seafood here.
Prachuap is inhabited by very nice people who are not accustomed to the few tourists and who hardly speak any English. Apart from that, this nice town does not offer enough attractions to accommodate tourists for a longer period of stay.

Khao Chong Krachok - Attractions
Khao Chong Krachok (วัดเขาช่องกระจก ) (PrachuapKhiriKhan)

The name Khao Chong Krachok, the “mirror mountain”, is derived from a hole inside the mountain that can be seen from afar. The hillside is populated by numerous pesky monkeys which often can only be kept away with a stick.

If you climb up the 396 steps to the small temple on the summit, you will be rewarded with a very beautiful view. Besides an overview of the bay with its offshore islands and the city, you can see even mountain chains in the west in Myanmar. In this region, the width of Thailand is only a few kilometers. Pineapple plantations stretch in the distance to the vast hills.

Darn Singkorn (25 km west), located at the border with Myanmar, is an interesting place because of its colorful “smuggler market”. Go by tuk-tuk or rented bicycle.
