Koh Chang (elephant Island) is Thailand’s second-largest island and the primary Destination for those visiting Koh Chang Marine national park, which includes dozens of unspoiled islands. Located in Trat province, about 300 kilometres east of Bangkok and not far from the Cambodian border, Koh Chang is 70% covered by unspoiled rainforest and the Island’s permanent residents are only gradually becoming more involved in Tourism as development has increased in the past decade. 

Now serviced by an airport just 15 minutes from the ferry terminal in Trat, Koh Chang is more easily accessible than ever before. Drawn to Koh Chang’s pristine Beaches and sparkling water, more well-to-do Thai and international travellers have been discovering Koh Chang and numerous luxury spas and resorts have sprung up to cater to them. Nonetheless, the Island is still a dream Destination for budget travellers and families, with a wide variety of affordable Accommodation options and numerous gorgeous and tranquil Beaches surrounded by crystal clear water. 

In addition to natural beauty, the Island is also home to a wide range of wildlife, including native birds, snakes, deer, and even a number of elephants. As for activities, Koh Chang and the nearby islands that make up the national park are great for Snorkelling, diving, camping, and jungle hiking. The majority of tourists stay at Hat Sai Khao, Hat Kai Muk, Hat Ta Nam, and Laem Bang Bao, all of which are linked by a single road running down the west coast. Access to the island is via Bangkok Airways service to Trat or buses that connect to shuttle service to the ferry docks at Laem Ngop near Trat.
