Wang Ko Beach

Wang Ko Beach, locally known as Hat Wang Ko, is a freshwater river beach along the Chi River in Kosum Phisai District, Maha Sarakham Province, northeastern Thailand. It features a sandy shoreline formed by seasonal river levels and is a popular local recreation area. Notable as an inland beach in Isan, it offers river views, shallow wading areas, and a casual community atmosphere for swimming, picnicking and relaxation away from coastal beaches.

Visitors can expect a wide sandy riverbank along the Chi River with shallow water suitable for wading and swimming when water levels are low in the dry season. The setting is open and natural with scattered trees, simple shelters, seating areas and seasonal food stalls selling local snacks and drinks. Visitors can picnic, relax by the water, photograph the river landscape and enjoy an informal, family-oriented atmosphere managed as a community leisure spot.

Serves as a community recreation and social gathering place for residents of Kosum Phisai and Maha Sarakham, reflecting local Isan riverside leisure culture along the Chi River.
