From Hatyai to Phatthalung by train took 2 hour to arrived Phatthalung station and half and hour to ban thale noi lake.
This place is one of the most interesting nature parks of Thailand and well worth a visit. A trip on the lake with a small boat takes about 1 to 2 hours and you should start early in the morning, as the lotus will close the flowers in the afternoon. There are a lot of different waterbirds. Also water buffalos may be seen as they eat the waterplants and grass.
We hired a boat for an hour for 450 baht. The boatman was great taking us to see the different sites and slowing down each time I raised my camera to take a photograph, In the end we were almost 2 hours for the same price. Wonderful lotus flowers and it was interesting to see the diversity of different parts of the lake. Birds and buffalo are very much in evidence. We went at 6am to enjoy the sunrise scenery over the boat and surrounded by lotus flowers around. A great experience to explore this place.
