Ranong

Ranong Province Essentials

Ranong Province, Thailand's wettest region, centers on geothermal activity and coastal landscapes. The area features the Raksa Warin and Porn Rung hot springs, where mineral-rich waters reach temperatures of 65°C. To the south, Ko Phayam offers a car-free environment with cashew nut plantations and the distinctive natural rock arch at Sunset Point. Inland, the treeless Phu Khao Ya, or Grass Hill, shifts from vibrant green to golden brown depending on the season, while the Ranong Canyon provides a reservoir formed in an abandoned tin mine.
