Koh Chang Wallpaper – an Easter Present
I get a few people asking about the photos they see on this site and I am always happy to send people copies if they want to use one for wallpaper on their computer to remind them of the island. I’ve also occasionally sent people better quality versions of photos …
The East Coast of Koh Chang By Bicycle
I fancied a bit of exercise the other today and wanted a change from my usual cycling route on the west coast so I decided on heading down the east of the island. This is a much nicer road to ride on as there is virtually no traffic, plus for …
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 …
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 …
Salakphet Fishing Village
For most tourists a visit to a fishing village on Koh Chang entails hopping in a pick up truck taxi down to Bangbao in the south west of the island. Here you will see a pier, a handful of fishing boats but the vast majority of fishermen are now running …
Than Mayom Waterfall, Koh Chang
In theory if a waterfall is impressive enough for not one but two Thai kings to have made the effort to visit well over 100 years ago, it should be well worth a look. However, Than Mayom Waterfall always leaves me with a serious “Is that it?” feeling. Sure there …
Koh Chang’s Newest Viewpoint
When I was on Pearl beach last week I noticed a new building on the clifftop, just to the north. And a couple of days ago a sign went up advertising what it is. The Thai Navy are in the process of building a shrine to honour Admiral Krom Luang …
Koh Chang Sunsets – August 2011
The rainy season may be pretty rainy but it is also the time of yea when, when the clouds do part, the skies are at their clearest and you can take much better landscape photos than you can during the main tourist season when the sky tends to be a …
The Unofficial Kai Bae Viewpoint
High up on a hillside midway between Kai Bae and Lonely Beach lies a run down building. It belongs to the National Park and I remember seeing it when it was being built and by the looks of things it was planned as a restaurant and visitor centre. …
Koh Chang’s Tallest Waterfall. Visiting ‘Klong Neung’
Read pretty much any guide on Koh Chang or look at any map and there will be a mention of Klong Neung waterfall, Koh Chang’s tallest, which is located in the south-east of the island. What there won’t, or extremely rarely, will be is any photos of it and most …
Rainy (a.k.a. Green) Season Activities: Wave Watching
Right now a tropical storm is passing over Vietnam and towards Thailand. Koh Chang, and elsewhere in Thailand will get the edge of it. Luckily, the weather here is nowhere as extreme as in the Philippines or Vietnam but when the remnants of a storm do pass over the sea can be a tad choppy. A few photos here.
