Namtok Yong National Park is at the boundary to Thung Song District, protecting forested hills of the Nakhon Si Thammarat Range and includes several waterfalls.
On 9 June 1975 the two tambons, Na Bon and Thung Song, were split from Thung Song district to form the new minor district (king amphoe) Na Bon.[1] On 13 July 1981 it was upgraded to a full district.[2][3]
The slogan of the district is "Khlong Chang waterfall, good breed of rubber, fertile land, join pit krit festival".
The district is divided into three sub-districts (tambons), which are further subdivided into 34 villages (mubans). Na Bon is a township (thesaban tambon) which covers parts of tambon Na Bon. There are a further three tambon administrative organizations (TAO).
