I stayed 2 weeks in Khanom in March. One week in Vish Hotel & second week in Sea Breeze House on Naiplao Beach (you covered them 12/18 months ago!). Barely any farangs at the time bar some intrepid continental Europeans. And as your drone shots showed beaches entirely deserted. Well worth it & not yet destroyed by overtourism like other previously fantastic places in Southern Thailand.

I used to love going to places like English Bay or Canada Place to watch the fireworks, or going to Playland or the PNE, all the super busy and loud, over crowded places, but that passion died fast and now I can't stand crowds or noisy/load places. Maybe it's old age catching up to me. LMFAO CHEERS buddy. Keep safe and stay healthy. 🙂👍

The entire Western side of the Gulf has tons of fantastic much less traveled beach setting options > spent a week last year approx 4+ hrs north of Khanom (in Chumphon) Thung Wua Laen (Bull) Beach > very quiet & cozy > Ferry about an hr + if I recall to Samui & Phangan > indeed hidden gems all over this side of the Gulf + I'm an early riser so the Sunrise beach walks facing East on the Gulf are spectacular 🌅
