Join an Explorer Tour in Ko Chang, Trat Province
Discover the seldom-seen east side of Koh Chang on a full-day route that takes you from hotel pickup to the sweeping viewpoint at White Sand Beach, then north to the island’s most important spirit house of Koh Chang with its Chinese Buddhist influences. You’ll continue along the east coast to explore the beautiful mangrove forests of Salak Kok, enjoying a guided boat trip through the mangroves by traditional Thai longtail or kayak, then visit the local temple in Salak Phet where your guide will share insights about Buddhism before a relaxed lunch at a neighborhood restaurant. In the afternoon you’ll unwind at the secretive Shambala Beach Bar in Klong Son bay, one of the island’s best-kept spots for beach time, a dip in the beach pool and frozen drinks, then return to your resort on Koh Chang in Trat Province late in the afternoon - an easy, immersive way to experience the nature, culture and coastal charm of the island.
