 Description:   Sai Khao beach is a 7-kilometer beach. It is one of the beautiful beaches in Prachuap Khiri Khan Province. The sea is clean and clear and not so deep that people can go swimming. Along the beach is a 5-kilometer beach road, together with coconut garden, shrimp hatchery, and local fishermen’s boat and shed. The tourists can experience the fishermen’s boat trip, an ecotourism and cultural tourism. The atmosphere is so lively that it is perfect for those who enjoy strolling along the beach. The time when the sun rises is more beautiful than any other time all day. In addition, from August to October, there are always whales swimming up to the sea surface at Bo Nok beach, around 3 hours each time. We can see them either from the beach by binoculars or by taking the villager’s fishing boat towards there. Those whales are black Bryde’s whales. They are usually 10-12 meters long, have sharp mouth shape, and have white skin under their chin and on their stomach. They are friendly and very familiar with human. They always swim alongside the villager’s fishing boat that passes their pod. The Bryde’s whales live in tropical waters such as in Myanmar, India, and Thailand. In Thailand, they can be found in the Gulf of Thailand in Prachuap khiri Khan Province and Petchaburi Province area. There is a theory that the presence of the Bryde’s whales means Bo Nok Sea is still one of the rich sea in the Gulf of Thailand; therefore, the tourists should conserve the beach so that the Bryde’s whales can always be Thailand’s ecotourism sources.
