- Snap a sneaky selfie with the famous “Hin Ta Hin Yai” at Lamai Beach; the strange rock formation is a result of the granite being eroded by seawater. Hin Ta (“grandpa rock”) is a granite boulder that resembles the male genitalia, while Hin Yai (“grandma rock”) is its female counterpart.

Built in 1972, the statue is recognized as the largest Buddha statue in Thailand’s southern region at 10 m wide and 12 m tall.
