Ko Wua Talap, which means "Sleeping Cow Island" is one of the most attractive island in the Angthong Marine National Park. The park headquarters is located on Ko Wua Talap. Most day-trip tours to Angthong will stop over at Ko Wua Talap. There is a forest trail to the top to Ko Wua Talap. The climb is steep and the rocks jagged. Ropes are installed at several steep sections to help with the climbing.

A climb to the top of Ko Wua Talap is well worth the trip, as the scenery from there is simply breathtaking. There is a platform at the top for visitors to rest and enjoy the view. One can see the Angthong archipelago splayed out in all directions.
