Stop 9
On the way to Shark Bay you will pass by Buddha Rock, a group of boulders creating an almost human-like shape and resembles a male in a sitting position. Hin Yaai Mae is the female. Both are believed to be ‘spirit rocks’ and are treated with respect by the local population. Shark Bay is a private bay with a beautiful beach of fine white sand, shaded by tall coconut trees and Pemphis Acidula. It's a quiet place to come and relax, and got its name from the blacktip reef sharks that frequent here.
