Top Things to do in Ko Chang
What to do and see in Ko Chang, Trat Province: The Best Beaches
Ko Chang means “Elephant Island,” and indeed, if you’d like an up-close-and-personal encounter with the world’s largest land mammal, you can do that here—you can even swim with them at Ban Kwan Chang, an elephant preserve recommended by TripAdvisor travelers. In the past few years, the island has experienced a huge boom in tourism, so new hotels and restaurants abound.

Khlong Prao Beach is peaceful, quiet and pretty in a rustic natural way. The tide brings the sea right up in the morning, and by evening it’s gone out a way enabling you to walk along the beach on the sand in the afternoon. It’s so peaceful here; even with some busy resorts, you still don’t have people swimming by you. Soft sand, shallow for ages so safe swimming. No tall buildings spoiling the look of nature. Great little local places to eat at the quieter end near Santhiya Tree resort. Walking further south there are more hotels, Emerald and Dewa get busier, but still not as crowded as other islands. More beach bars and places to eat as you pass these hotels. I’d thoroughly recommend this beach if you want a quiet peaceful time.

Khlong Prao is I believe the most beautiful beach in Ko Chang . So no doubt, a 5 star for this beach which is also the 2nd longest (after White Sand Beach) on Ko Chang. Why is it important? Because you can jog at sunrise and have a long relaxing and replenishing walk at sunset. There are plenty of restaurants along it as well as massages possibilities. We were there beginning on December and the beach was not overcrowded at all. One of the best beaches in Ko Chang if not the best.

Beautiful bay with shallow sea, great for kids to swim. Very good food at the treehouse restaurant; one of my favourite Pad Thai meals. About 20 beach bungalows which are basic.

Our family of 8 (4 adults and 4 teens) stayed at Apple Beachfront resort for 3 nights. This hotel is right on the beach, so we enjoyed White Sands beach from sun up to sunset for 3 days! It has many tourists, but the beach is long enough to accommodate without feeling crowded. There are many restaurants along the beach (Pen’s was our favorite at the North end of the beach) and we took a day snorkeling cruise (Thaifun) that picked us up right at the beach.
