The transportation to the island is quite good even for foreigners. There are regular flights available from Bangkok to Trat. Koh Chang is considered a great place with friendly locals and of course, can’t miss to mention, with the BEST seafood. These make it one of the most popular tourist spot for anyone, especially Thais.
The island consists of 70% rainforest, peaks and cliffs surrounding by white sandy beaches, beautiful coral reefs and clear sea water. The inner hinterland still remains as nature. Although, recently the number of tourist has increased, it is blessed with its waterfalls and a wide and varied population of animals, like parrots, wide boar and the most beautiful butterflies. However, today there are several modern resorts and hotels around the island alongside the beaches.

Well not only Koh Chang is another best answer for those who have pretty tight budget, Koh Chang also gives you so many choices of activities you can do there, for example, diving, kayaking, trekking, fishing, hiking, Thai cooking course, Thai massage and Spa Therapy.
