Baan Salak Phet - all beaches

It's hard to put into words, but this place is truly one-of-a-kind, albeit in a strange way. We stayed for two nights and found the beach to be incredibly beautiful and untouched, although it could use some shade and the sunbeds were a bit rusty. The hotel itself is quite old and not the cleanest, but the rooms are filled with natural light and have a charming atmosphere in the morning. The food was decent, although the hotel's restaurant could use more variety. Given the remote location of the hotel, it's understandable that they may not have a wide selection of food available. Speaking of remote, this place is really far away from everything. If you want to explore other areas, you'll need to budget for a taxi every night. While there were people on scooters, the road is poorly lit and can be a bit dangerous at night. This destination seems perfect for families with children who prefer a relaxing week at the beach and don't plan on venturing too far. P.S. I can't help but feel that the old boat has an eerie presence, but then again, that adds to the intrigue!

This stunning and small island is located in the southeast of Koh Chang. To get there, you can either rent a kayak or use an engine boat service. It only takes about 30 minutes of paddling with a kayak to reach the beautiful beaches. Since the island is a National Park, you will need to purchase a ticket. The ranger will collect the payment once you arrive at the beach. The fee is 40 baht for Thai nationals and 200 baht for foreigners. There is a narrow strip of land that separates the two beaches on the island. The beach on the south side is equipped with a floating pontoon. It's a wonderful journey through nature, with crystal clear waters just a short distance away from Koh Chang.

The island is absolutely stunning for snorkeling.

Super super

This beach is simply stunning, and there are plenty of options for entertainment and dining. However, it can be a bit quieter during the low season in May, when the wet season sets in. Nonetheless, this can be the perfect time to visit if you prefer a more peaceful atmosphere without the crowds. Our accommodation was conveniently located right on the beach, making our stay even more enjoyable.

This beach is one of my favorites on the commercial side of the island. It features white sand and is commonly enjoyed by two fantastic resorts, Nature Beach Resort and The Siam Beach Resort, which both contribute to its charm. The beach offers one of the most remarkable sunsets on the island, and there is an abundance of food and drinks, beach chairs, and happy beachgoers. Whenever I visit the island, this is the beach I always choose.
