Clusters of smooth granite boulders lining the northern edge of Ao Thong Takhian (Silver Beach), between Lamai and Chaweng. The stones create natural tide pools and framed sea views that make this one of the more photogenic spots along the east coast. The beach here is also used for swimming — the boulders provide natural wind shelter and the water is calm. Free to visit. Bring snorkel gear if you want to explore the rocks underwater.
