Thale Noi is the most popular attraction of Phattalung. It is located at the northern tip of Songkla Lake. Thale Noi is famous for birdwatching and its water lilies. Take a boat ride to enjoy the tranquility of the lake. Make sure you get to the lake early morning as the water lilies close their flowers after 10am. Take a boat from the park headquarters cost TB400 per boat. The boat fits 6 persons.
At Thale Noi Park Headquarters there are pavilions on stilts. It is kind of nice to have picnic under the shade while the breeze blows. There are exhibition of fish from the lake, conference room, toilet and shower at the park headquarter. One of the princesses has a summer retreat built for her to birdwatch. Best bird watching season: December to June.
Entrance ticket to Park HQ for Thai people: TB10 per person, for foreigner: TB100 per person. If you ask me, it's not worth going there for foreigner.
