KRABI'S NOPPHARAT TARA BEACH

VIDEO DESCRIPTION

 

 

A brief impression of Phang Nga Bay in the Andaman Sea and Krabi's beach Hahd Noppharat Tara (หาดนพรัตน์ธารา), as well as Khlong Ying Seua (คลองยิงเสือ), i.e. the ‘Shot Tiger Canal’, with its mouth that doubles as a small harbour from where local long tail fisher boats depart and arrive and which is situated adjacent to a cliff that separates the bays of Hahd Noppharat Tara from Hahd Ao Nang (หาดอ่าวนาง) to the south. Recently, Pratimakam Hoi Chak Tihn (ประติมากรรมหอยชักตีน), i.e. the ‘Scallop Sculpture’ or ‘Wing Shell Sculpture’ was erected along the beach, a monument that represents an edible sea snail with the scientific designation Laevistrombus canarium, and a seafood delicacy from Krabi which is found only in the seas off Krabi and nearby provinces.
