 Nopparat Thara Beach, close to Ao Nang, is showing more
signs of destruction.
Near the national park, the sea wall has been torn down by the tsunami.
A lot of soil has been washed away by the waters, exposing the roots of
many beachfront trees.
 On the way towards Ao Nang, near Klong Haeng, you can still
see how the tsunami wreaked havoc on the construction site of the new
beach front. The hotels and restaurants in this area look undamaged,
but judging from the roots and the garbage lying in the nearby forest,
a significant amount of water must have reached them and caused some
destruction. Everything seems to have been cleaned up in the meantime.
 The area next to Klong Haeng is the main repair and
construction area for the longtail boats. Here you still see a few
wrecks which are used as a spare parts pool for new ones. Boatmen from
other provinces help out in repairing the boats.
