“The pink stone courtyard is caused by a natural phenomenon and has a highlight, which is a long wooden bridge along the rocks by the sea.”
Pink Stone Field Ko Phet is one of Chanthaburi Province's most distinctive and well-known attractions. Characterized by its incredible geological features, this coastal area is covered with a cluster of rocks encrusted with pinkish lime-encrusted algae. When these algae dry, they give the rocks a vivid pink-to-purplish hue, resembling a magnificent painting. This area is an absolute must-visit spot for photography and scenic viewing.
A unique feature of this stone field is the arrangement of the rocks that run parallel to the sea, complemented by a harmoniously constructed wooden walkway. This allows visitors to comfortably and safely explore the beautiful pink stones while experiencing the waves crashing against the rocks up close. It is truly considered an "Unseen Thailand" destination that deeply impresses every visitor.
If you are looking for a destination that combines the wonder of nature with a peaceful and romantic atmosphere, the Pink Stone Field on Ko Phet is a place you will fall in love with at first sight. A trip here will replenish your spirit and provide inspiration for your vacation.
