Thailand's Best Waterfalls
Ko Pha Ngan's interior is home to several granite-bed waterfalls, primarily protected within the Than Sadet-Ko Pha Ngan National Park. These sites include Than Sadet, which holds historical significance due to inscriptions left by several Thai monarchs, and Phaeng Yai, the island's largest waterfall. The cascades are most active during the rainy season between October and January. Many locations, such as Wang Sai and Paradise Waterfall, offer natural swimming pools and are accessible via inland hiking trails.
