About this audio guide
This guide to Ko Wua Ta Lap, the main island of Thailand's Ang Thong National Marine Park near Koh Samui, follows the archipelago's centuries as a hideout for pirates working its caves and coves. It traces the moment in nineteen eighty when officials moved to secure these islands, along the same ridge trail lookouts once used above today's ranger station. Best heard partway up the climb, with the islands spread out below you.
