Wat Na Phra Lan is a Buddhist temple and tourist attraction in Mae Nam, best suited to people who want a quiet temple stop near the beach rather than a formal sightseeing stop. It is open 24 hours every day, has a restroom, and offers wheelchair-accessible entrance, parking, and restroom. Reviewers consistently describe it as peaceful and clean, with a beachside setting near Maenam Beach and the Na Phra Lan pier.
