Wang Sai Seafood

For those seeking a truly local experience, Wang Sai Seafood is a bustling open-air establishment on the beach just north of Ao Nang. The best way to order here is to choose a fish from the day’s catch (payable by weight) and select one of the many preparations, from a simple lemon garlic sauce to a spicy red curry. While many of the waitstaff do not speak English, they are quick to find a colleague who does. Reserve a waterfront table at sunset, when you can watch the local women digging for clams.
