    Satun UNESCO Global Geopark is located in southern Thailand covering 4 districts in Satun Province, namely Thung Wa, Manang, La-Ngu, and Mueang. Its topography comprises limestone mountain ranges, islands of many sizes, and splendid beaches. Tourists are welcome to experience the pure nature, the rich history, and the indigenous way of life in this area.The land here is prime evidence of a submerged landscape dating back over 500 million years ago, a time when early organisms thrived and introduced oxygen to the Earth’s atmosphere. Subsequent uplift of tectonic plates formed mountain ranges and caves, which served as the first shelters for prehistoric humans. To this day, inhabitants of the geopark continue to live on its natural resources, which is considered a unique cultural tradition.
