“A border town with sea views, lively markets, and quick boat access from Thailand across the Kraburi River”
Victoria Point — commonly known as Kawthaung — is Myanmar’s southernmost town, situated just across the Kraburi River from Ranong province in Thailand. The area is popular among Thai tourists who cross the border for a short visit to experience Burmese culture, shop for local crafts, and enjoy sea views from the quiet and laid-back town.
Visitors typically hire a longtail boat from the pier at Pak Nam Ranong (Ranong fishing port), with the journey across the river taking around 20 minutes. At Kawthaung, you’ll find a variety of items including gemstones, Burmese lacquerware, handmade rattan products, seashell jewelry, and other local souvenirs at affordable prices.
Victoria Point offers a unique cultural blend and peaceful seaside atmosphere — perfect for a half-day excursion with authentic cross-border charm.
