ถ้ำเขาจูบกัน
An attraction of two rocks "kissing each other" at the mouth of a cave in the national park, making it a great photo spot. A very beautiful place especially with the sunset. To get here, you must reserve a boat, which can book out really quickly during weekends and long weekends. The boat ride also includes a trip along the swap through the hills. Please note that the line to the Kissing Mountain Cave can be very long and wait times for a photo can take over an hour especially during the afternoons.
ถ้ำแก้ว
A cave located in the hills. This 500-metre hike takes you up and then into the cave. Parts of the cave can be slippery at times and there are big ledges. Also note to bring closed shoes because of the sharp rocks and a proper light source (there are torches available for rental at the entrance). It can be very humid and hard to breath at certain parts of the cave.
หาดแหลมศาลา
A nice white sand beach which is the starting point for the ascent to Phraya Nakhon Cave. In order to get there, you need to either hike for 1.5 km up and down a hill or pay 400 baht for a boat ride to bypass the hill (roundtrip), starting at Bang Pu village. Because this is a part of the national park, amenities are slightly limited but there is a restaurant. Because the sand has a mixture of blood, the water is not as clear as that of Hua Hin or Southern Thailand.
ถ้ำพระยานคร
Probably the most famous attraction in the national park. The cave is accessible via a short but steep hike through the forest before reaching the cave, around 2 km one way. The first chamber is a sinkhole with a natural bridge on top, and the second chamber has a Royal Pavilion which was built during the reign of King Rama V.
The hike can be substantially shortened by taking a boat (400 baht fee round trip) from Bang Pu beach, which will bypass around 1.5 km, including one hill but there is still around 100 meters of altitude gain in 500 metres. However, it is best to check with the national park beforehand if the boats are running, as they are seasonal.
ถ้ำไทร
