Tubkaek Beach

This guide to Tubkaek Beach traces the sand underfoot back to a coral reef laid down in shallow water some four hundred twenty-five million years ago, then follows the collision between India and Asia roughly sixty million years ago that shoved that old seabed rock up into daylight. It covers the slower, quieter process that finished the job afterward, and what it left rising out of the sea toward Hong Island. Walk out at low tide, when the water pulls back far enough to cross freshly bared sand.
