"Phuket" is a province that I visit very often, 1-3 times a year. What's so good about it? Haha, I have many good friends there. Every time I go, I have a place to stay, friends to take me sightseeing, and friends to take me out to eat. I've been there so much that my friends don't know where to take me anymore and have to find new places all the time. This time, we are traveling with two other pages, @วิถีตากล้อง & @พากล้องเที่ยว, and my friends. We are going to find... another point of the southernmost tip of Thailand in Phuket.

"Sunset viewpoint at the tip of Laem Krating"
Find "Hin Ruea Bo" Phuket also has it, no need to go to "Mokoju".
The view here is incredibly beautiful, even on a rainy day. On a clear day, it must be absolutely stunning. The tip of the cape offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Andaman Sea, making it a perfect spot to watch the sunset as it dips below the horizon.
**Directions:** Drive to Baan Krating Phuket Resort and park your car there.
**Coordinates:** https://goo.gl/maps/7bcvmHtLgny
Park your car in front of the resort. On the way, you will pass The Nai Harn Hotel. It may seem like you cannot pass through, but drive in and tell the security guard you are going to Laem Krating. Once you reach Baan Krating Phuket Resort, find parking along the road and walk down the left side along the resort wall. When you reach the beach, you will see foreigners sunbathing. This is a public beach. Turn right and walk along the beach. You will walk on some rocks and climb a little. There are no signs, so follow the rocks for about 200 meters. Then look to your right and you will see a path. It may seem like you cannot walk there, but you can. It is a bit steep, but walk along the edge of the sea. It takes about 30 minutes to walk to the end of Laem Krating. You will see a rock that looks like a sailboat.
Exercise caution while walking, as hazards may arise at any moment.
The weather was initially clear and sunny, but as we reached the tip of the cape, the rain started to pour down. We had to take shelter behind a rock for over half an hour until the rain stopped. The return trip was slippery, but we had a good time exploring new angles for our friends to enjoy.
