AROUND BANKRUT
Ban Krut (บ้านกรูด) is a beach village on the Northern Gulf Coast of Thailand, about 160km south of Hua Hin. A beach road runs parallel to a 12km long, beautiful beach shaded by coconut and casuarina trees. Originally, there were plenty of bergamot oranges, similar to Thai kaffir limes (má~grùut มะกรูด) which influenced the name.
The atmosphere in this area is still serene. A fishing community is strung along the beach. It is a place where tourists can glimpse the lifestyle of small-scale commercial fishers.
