Sparrow Bar

The Sparrow Bar in Bang Niang is one of Khao Lak's most up and coming live music venues. A great place to enjoy a cold beer or exotic cocktail whilst getting down to a heady mix of classic rock, dance anthems, Thai rock and of course some tropical reggae. All to this to a backdrop of pirates, shipwrecks, pirates, revelry and superb Thai hospitality.

Situated amongst the beach forest of casuarinas, palms, and local flora are 7 bungalows near the southern end of Phra Thong Bay. Horizon Beach Bungalows seems to have kept Phratong’s special ecological status in mind in constructing their bungalows with predominantly locally sourced and renewable natural materials inspired by the traditional Thai way with bamboo, palm, and local woods.

How to get to Khao Lak

Khao Lak is ideally located just one hour north of Phuket Island. For a beachside destination in southern Thailand it is by far one of the most easily accessible. There is no conflicting information like 'many roads lead to Khao Lak'. Only one road leads to Khao Lak, Highway 4 which runs from Bangkok in central Thailand all the way to the Malay boarder in the south. The ease in which you can reach Khao Lak, as well as being the gateway to the famous Similan Islands, is adding to the small town's popularity as a tourist destination.
