An emerald green interior and sapphire-blue sea have combined to make this small delightful island deservedly popular. Just 70 minutes flight from Bangkok, the island is covered by palm trees and covered by powdery sandy beaches.

For those who feel Chaweng has grown too large and commercialised we recommend one of the other beaches which are quieter and more typically Thai but within easy reach of Chaweng for a night out.

Alternatevly enjoy exploring the picturesque waterfalls, local temples and the Ang Thong Marine National Park
