The Dragon Spine Sandbar (Talay Waek), Koh Yao Noi

The Dragon Spine - san lang mangkon - is a narrow ridge of sand off Koh Yao Noi that emerges from the sea as the tide falls, curving out into the bay so that you can walk a long way from shore with water on both sides.

It appears and disappears entirely with the tide, which is what makes it worth timing a visit for. At its fullest it runs for a few hundred metres, with the karst islands of Phang Nga Bay standing beyond.

It exists only around low tide. Check the tide table before going - at the wrong hour there is simply nothing there - and start back before the water returns.
