About this audio guide
This guide to Tawaen Beach opens with a jet ski rental gone wrong, a sudden claim of damage, and a number the renter suggests is simpler to just pay. It traces the July 2020 operation officers Adisorn Kongkoy and Thongin Panyanam ran on the sand itself after a surge of complaints traced back to this one stretch, the busiest beach on the island with anywhere from two thousand to ten thousand day trippers landing daily. Look around at the jet skis lined up and the sellers waving you over before you rent one yourself.
