Question 4

We have never been to Thailand before. How far is it from the town center and the nearest beach? What is the exact location on a map?

Accepted Answer

Your home location is listed on Google Maps as Goshen Lake. GPS location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/hmXutU3RBEMpxU5m7
Goshen Lake is 2 km (1.2 miles) to Kokkloy town, 4.5km (2.8 miles) from the nearest beach (Na Tai beach), a 13-minute drive across the bridge to Phuket island, and a half hour drive to Ao Phangnga (Phangnga Bay). 
Phuket is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. About 10 million visitors, mostly international, come to Phuket annually. Compare this to Oahu, Hawaii (5 million annually), Ibiza, Spain (4 million), and Bali, Indonesia (7 million).
Phangna Bay is listed on Touropia’s list among the “10 of the Most Beautiful Bays in the World” (published February 2025). James Bond Island, officially named Koh Tapu, is located in Phang Nga Bay. Drive a little further and you will find more popular beach destinations of Ao Nang and Krabi.

If we want to live there full time, then is it possible to do so with a visa?
