Top 10 attractions in Koh Chang
Koh Chang
Koh Chang is located off the coast of Trat Province in eastern Thailand, in the eastern Gulf of Thailand, near the border with Cambodia, and is a major part of the national park. It is named for its overall silhouette, which is said to resemble an elephant, and its terrain is characterized by rolling mountains, dense tropical rainforests, and winding coastlines. The island is heavily forested, with streams, waterfalls, and forest trails, while the coast features numerous beaches and bays, creating a natural landscape that combines mountain forests and the sea. It offers a mix of tropical forests, waterfalls, beaches, and marine activities, making it ideal for nature sightseeing and island vacations.Thailand · Koh Chang
Kai Bae Beach
A sandy beach with many palm trees is a beach developed in recent years, surrounded by newly developed hotel areas, and the facilities are basically complete. Living here, quiet and comfortable, there is a feeling of being in a paradise. The water here is clear, and you can see a lot of colorful fish on the bottom of the sea. When the tide is low, you can walk from this beach to the opposite KohManNai island.Koh Chang · 4.4km from downtown
Lonely Beach
Lonely Beach has fewer tourists than White Beach, and there are no shops around, just a large wooden house built high on the beach. Locals and tourists have turned this place into a seaside gathering place. During the day there are tourists sunbathing here, and at night the party here is very high, which fully reflects the enthusiasm of the island.Koh Chang · 5.6km from downtown
White Sand beach
White Beach is a beach developed earlier on Koh Chang. The sand is soft, the sea water is crystal clear, and you can watch the beautiful sunset. The surrounding infrastructure is complete. There are many hotels to choose from near the beach, and the streets are full of "horses killing chickens" and spas, small restaurants, large restaurants and convenience stores, which are very lively.Koh Chang · 9.3km from downtown
Ban Bang Bao
BangBao is a fishing village located on the south side of Koh Chang, close to the bay BangBaoBay. The fishing village is very small and built on the water. There is a long corridor with shops, bars, restaurants, etc. on both sides, and of course there are residents. The house building is very distinctive, using wooden piles to drive piling on the beach, and then building the house, when the tide is high, it is a 'villa' on the sea, which has a unique style. There are also fishing boats on the seaside that can carry tourists to the sea, and there are colorful corals on the seabed. Most tourists come here for the fresh seafood.Koh Chang · 8.7km from downtown
Than Mayom Waterfall
ThanMayom Waterfall is a well-known four-step waterfall on the island, located in a park. The water pool under the waterfall is more than ten meters deep, and the water quality is very cool and you can swim. It is suitable for tourists who spend more than two days in Koh Chang to hang out.Koh Chang · 5.7km from downtown
Klong Prao Beach
Close to White Beach, a beach with few tourists, the shore is densely packed with coconut trees and chalets of various styles. The consumption here is cheaper than that of White Beach, where you can quietly bask in the sun and blow the sea breeze. Drinks and fresh coconuts can be purchased at nearby restaurants, as well as a Thai massage.Koh Chang · 4.3km from downtown
Chao Phraya River
The Chao Phraya River is the customary name used by the Chinese community for the river known in Thai as "Chao Phraya." The term "Chao Phraya" originates from Thai, literally meaning "mother of waters," while its Thai name is often translated as "river of kings," both reflecting the river's significance in Thailand. It originates in the northern mountains of Thailand, flows south through the central plains, passes the ancient capital of Ayutthaya, and runs through the heart of Bangkok before emptying into the Gulf of Thailand. Including its upstream tributaries, it stretches over 1,000 km. Bangkok grew alongside this river, once crisscrossed by waterways and dubbed the "Venice of the East." Even today, the Chao Phraya River remains a vital waterway for local transportation and daily life. Taking a cruise is a classic way to explore the river. By day, the water bustles with public ferries, cargo boats, and crossings, resembling a watery highway for Bangkok residents, while traditional floating markets have mostly relocated to tributaries. Along the river, historic landmarks like the Grand Palace, Wat Pho, and Wat Arun glide past, juxtaposed with modern malls like ICONSIAM across the water. A short ferry ride from Tha Tian Pier leads to Wat Arun on the opposite bank. At night, the river transforms as lights illuminate both shores, with Wat Arun's porcelain-clad spires shimmering softly. Sightseeing and dinner cruises set sail, offering a distinctly different atmosphere from the land-based experience. If timing allows, an evening cruise lets you witness both the sunset and the city lights, capturing two faces of the river in one trip. △Sparkling Chao Phraya River △Enchanting night view at Chao Phraya RiverThailand · Bangkok
Ko Wai
Wei Island is one of the four islands in the tour. The sandy beach is very shallow and extends all the way to the bottom of the sea. The water here is unpolluted and crystal clear, making it an excellent place for snorkeling, and different sea areas have their own characteristics: some have magnificent coral reefs, some are habitats for colorful fish, and some are in the same area. The sea water has different colors due to the contrast of different marine life.Koh Chang · 18.7km from downtown
Asiatique The Riverfront
Asiatique The Riverfront is a large outdoor shopping center located in Bangkok, Thailand. It is located at the old port of the East Asia Company. Connected to the Chao Phraya River and Charoen Krung Road. It is 30 rai (4.8 rai) in size and has future development plans to include a 72 rai (11.52 rai) mixed-use development following a larger renovation on the original site. This location opened in 2012. The shopping center was part of the East Asia Company established in 1897, one of the western companies trading with Siam at the time. The company has a port facility on the Chao Phraya River which includes several warehouses. The oldest structure can be traced back to 1907. In 1947, the port stopped providing services and facilities. abandoned In May 2011, Asiatique Land announced plans to renovate and develop the site to create a shopping/entertainment center called Asiatique The Riverfront.Thailand · Bangkok

Slow down your journey
Sit or lie on the beach and listen to the sound of the waves for an afternoon
No too many tourists and noisy
You can quietly use your five senses to feel the beauty and tranquility of the sea.

I can say Koh Chang white sand beach is anathor Phuket for budget travel but still is one of the little more expensive places on Koh Chang and the largest beach. Its liek a crystal and realy nice water, good beach restaurants and a chill and relaxing vibe. It is also possible to get a good massage at the beach.

Koh Chang Lighthouse, Ao Bang Bao is another place that you should not miss when visiting Koh Chang. It is not far from the parking lot. Before reaching the lighthouse, you will walk through a community market. There are homestays and seafood restaurants along the way.

Tham Mayom Waterfall is located in the Koh Chang National Park. It is the most beautiful waterfall on Koh Chang. There is water flowing all year round. It is a medium-sized 4-tiered waterfall. It is a stream flowing down in layers along a black granite groove. The surrounding area is a rainforest with steep cliffs that are almost vertical. The weather is cool and comfortable. It is very suitable for camping, playing in the waterfall, and hiking.

A fantastic tour! Enjoy a buffet on the deck, feel the river breeze, admire the scenery on both banks, and listen to a live band. The views along both sides of the Chao Phraya River are unobstructed. I recommend taking a boat at night for an even more beautiful night view!

Koh Wai, a small island in Trat Province, is suitable for those who like islands with clear water, private atmosphere, quiet, and coral reefs for snorkeling in front of the island. It is an island where you can relax in a slow life to the fullest.
To get to Koh Wai, you can take a boat from the Krom Luang Chumphon Pier in Laem Ngop. The speedboat round trip costs 950 baht per person. Anyone who likes beautiful islands and clear water must not miss it. 🥰
