Koh Klum – Worth the effort?
It’s the question on everyone’s lips as they stand on Bangbao pier and see this big island which lies around 7 kilometres to the south. The island is Koh Klum and from a distance it certainly is an impressive sight as it’s mountainous and pretty big – almost 4Km in …
Koh Chang’s Home For Retired Elephants
This is something I found which will appeal to anyone with a sense of humour and whimsy. A home for retired elephants on Koh Chang . . .
“Each Koh Chang Elephant has its own history and is now in retirement on Koh Chang. He/she is specially chosen by Kingphant to join …
Koh Kood in Photos (Part 3)
I wasn’t planning on another trip to Koh kood so soon, but 10 days after I was first on the island I was back again for a couple of days. This time I stayed at Mangrove Bungalows, on the river in Klong Chao. 800 Baht/night for a large fan hut …
Lonely Beach Christmas Music
A couple of videos below to show you what you have been missing if you weren’t at Lonely Beach over the Christmas period. Siam Hut, Magic Garden, We Bar, Ting Tong Bar,Lemon Bar and Himmel all have regular parties with some pretty good DJs.
Featured in a couple of the videos …
Koh Kood in Photos (Part 2)
More from Koh Kood. Getting to the island is gradually getting easier. There are no vehicle ferries but speedboats run from Koh Chang and Koh Mak several times a day during high Season and there are also speedboat services from the mainland at Laem Sok. From koh Chang a speedboat …
Koh Kood in Photos (Part 1)
It isn’t often that I get time to go down to Koh Kood but as I was given a good deal on a room at Away Resort it was worth leaving the guesthouse behind on Koh Chang and heading down there for a couple of days of riding around on …
Signs of the Times
Just a few photos of signs up around Lonely Beach, Koh Chang. It is still a backpacker hangout but slowly moving more upmarket. You can still find some dirt cheap accommodation, but anyone staying here will notice that prices for essentials such as food & beer aren’t particularly cheap. More …
Khao Rakham Reservoir
I was in Trat the other day so decided to head out to the reservoir which is just a couple of kilometres out of town to see if there were any nice places for lunch. There weren’t. In any other town there would be some nice waterfront restaurants where tourists …
The Salakphet Temple Mural – Go & Contribute
I took a couple of our guests on a drive around the island the other day and we passed by Salakphet Temple. The new temple has been under construction for years, slowly being built as donations have come in. Architecturally it’s nothing spectacular, identical to pretty much any small temple …
Kai Bae at Night. The Village That Never Sleeps*.
* Disclaimer: It does.
I happened to be in Kai Bae last night so I took a few pics, just had time for a quick run round so no prize winning pics here. This was around 9pm, so I probably missed all the wild and crazy nightlife. Either that or many …
Bangbao Bay by Kayak. Includes Beach + Monkeys!
I was trying to think of a pretty easy half day ‘soft adventure’ that combined a bit of something for everyone. A bit of local life; easy place to stop for a cool drink on a beach; deserted beach to swim and relax a while, some wildlife and, if you …
The Rarely Visited Klong Prao Waterfall
Nope, not Klong Plu, that’s the big waterfall on the west coast of Koh Chang where you pay 200Baht to get in.
Klong Prao waterfall is in the same area but is much smaller and far less of an attraction which is probably why the plan, years ago, to make it …
