Khaolak is located about 50 kilometres north of Koh Phuket Island on the mainland in Phang Nga province. Most of its sandy beaches stretch from the Khao Luk-Lamru National Park in the South for about 20 kilometres northwards, starting with Sunset Beach, Nang Thong Beach, Bang Niang Beach, Khuk Khak Beach, Pakweep Beach and Bangsak Beach in the very North. A single beach, namely Khao Lac Beach is located south of and adjacent to Khaolak Lamru National Park.

Nangthong Beach extends for more than 2.5 kilometres from Sunset Beach in the South to the mouth of Bangniang River in the North. The sandy Nang Thong Beach is separated into several sections by rocky bands stretching out into the Andaman Sea. The southern part of Nangtong Beach is the centre of Khaolak, where the first bungalows were built in the late Eighties. Today, it is the most developed area of Khaolak offering a wide choice of restaurants, travel offices, dive shops, tailors and film developing. Most of these enterprises are located along Highway No 4, that is 200-600 metres away from the coast and can be reached easily by walking.
Most resorts along Nang Thong Beach are middle-class hotels like Khaolak Laguna Resort, Baan Khaolak Resort and Ocean Breeze Resort. Khaolak Seaview Resort is a first-class hotel, while most of the other resorts like Suwan Palm Resort, Khaolak Country Side Resort, Nang-Thong Bay Resort and Happy Lagoon are of lower standard and partly cater for those with lower budget. The Andaburi Resort is located close to the mainroad and attracts the younger people, who are renting motorbikes to visit the different beaches, while Khaolak Bhandari is a Thai-style boutique resort. The old tin mining town of Takuapa is about 30 kilometres further on.

Khao Lak is spelled in many different ways like Ko Lak, Khaolak, Khao Lack, Kao Lak, Kau Lac, Khao-Lak, Kao Lak, Kao Luk, Kao Lac, Kao Lack, Khao Luk, Kho Lak, Khao Lac, Kau Lak and Khaoluk.
