Park

Tubkaek Beach is about a half‑hour drive from Ao Nang by car or scooter. It’s incredibly quiet, with few people, so you can find real relaxation that’s missing in busy Ao Nang. There are several good hotels and Thai restaurants. Tubkaek is a great place to rest from activities and enjoy the beach. Bonus — gorgeous views of cliffs and nearby islets. Downside — very strong low tides, so swimming may be impossible; check tide times in an app when planning your visit.
