What to Buy and Where to Shop in Khao Lak

Like dining and drinking, shopping options number in the dozens rather than the hundreds. The souvenir shops in La On Village come to life as the afternoon grows late and cools off.

Some are bursting at the seams with inventory – offering just about every trinket imaginable – while others specialize in, say, tee shirts or beach gear.

Art stores, though not as prevalent as CD and DVD stalls, feature some of the more impressive gifts available – like silk wall hangings, wooden knickknacks, and paintings.

For a complete makeover, from the bridge of your nose to the tips of your toes, stop by Top Charoen Optical or KT Optic for a new pair of designer eyeglasses, Monty the Tailor for custom suits, shirts, and dresses, and then enjoy a massage – foot, oil, or traditional Thai – at any of the places in town.

Small convenience stores, including (if not especially) 7-11, are ubiquitous; finding a cheap bottle of water or a tube of sun cream won’t be a problem.

La On Village also has a couple internet cafes – useful for bragging in real time – and camera stores where you can have pictures developed, pick up extra film, or transfer photos from memory card to disc. ATMs are also readily available.
