One of significant features of the centre is an unspoiled mangrove forest with biodiversity. The beach containing dark color mud is beneficial to marine creatures, e.g. shrimps, shells, crabs, and mudskippers.It is notable that each year in the winter season over 5,000 seagulls will migrate from Siberia. It is also a natural habitat of more than 200 bird species. Currently, the Royal Thai Army has established the Bangpu Nature Education Centre in commemoration of the 72nd birthday anniversary of H.M.
