Phang Nga tourist attractions, Moken village, a village in the middle of the sea | Phang Nga
This Moken village is home to the Moken people, who number around 400 people in Thailand and around 2,000-3,000 people in Myanmar. Most of them are semi-nomadic and travel by sea frequently. About 20-30 years ago, several Moken families settled in permanent villages in the Surin Islands.
The Moken village is located in the Surin Islands National Park. It is said that the Moken people migrated here before it was declared a national park. All children are born able to swim. There is a school and a health center on the island, so you don't have to travel far. The villagers on this island live in a traditional way, living in wooden houses, using wooden boats to catch seafood and making handmade products.

This trip, thanks to the great video from Nong Non, who took his mother and Nong Music to explore the lifestyle of the sea people and tour the **Surin Islands National Park** in Phang Nga Province. The key locations and activities included are:
1. **Morgan Village:** Visiting the village of the sea people ethnic group, learning about their way of life and how they weave fishing nets to make bags.
And experiencing the cuteness of the children and the cats in the village.
2. **Morgan Village Viewpoint:** (18:09) Hiking up the hill to enjoy the panoramic view of the village and the sea from above.
3. **Snorkeling in the Surin Islands:** (22:09) Taking my mother snorkeling to see the beautiful coral reefs and schools of fish in very clear water.
4. **Chong Khao Khad:** (28:11) A beautiful and romantic spot to watch the sunset.
5. **Mai Ngam Beach:** (33:56) A campsite on an island by the beach, offering a close-to-nature experience and a million-dollar view of the sea in the morning.
