CITY GUIDE
Koh Chang
Koh Chang is one of eastern Thailand’s great island escapes: large, mountainous and heavily forested, with most visitor life spread along a chain of west-coast beaches and a very different southern and eastern side beyond the main resort strip. White Sand Beach offers the easiest first-time convenience, Klong Prao and Chai Chet balance resorts with nature, Kai Bae and Lonely Beach bring the strongest social energy, and Bang Bao opens the door to quieter southern beaches and marine excursions. Waterfalls, viewpoints, rainforest, diving and nearby islands give Koh Chang more depth than a simple beach break.
