About
Koh Chang
The
second largest island of Thailand, located on the Thai east
coast 310 km away from Bangkok near the border to Cambodia
in the Gulf of Thailand.
In 1982 the island together with 50 surrounding small islands
was protected as the Mu Ko Chang Marine National Park. About
85% of the island is part of the national park, mostly the
rain forest in the interior of the island. Nearby coral reefs
are also contained within the National Park. Notable animals
in the park include the stump-tailed Macaque, the small Indian
Civet, the Javan Mongoose, and 61 resident bird species. The
Koh Chang Wart Frog (Limnonectes kohchangae) was originally
thought to be an endemic species, but has now been found on
the mainland as well.
Most of the scenic beaches and bays are on the west side spreading
from the north to the south they include Ao Khlong Son , Hat
Sai Khao, Hat Khlong Phrao and Hat Kai Bae. A road cuts through
the western shore almost circling the island, the road for
now ends just after Ban Bang Bao, a fishing community on the
foot of the hill in the South. Camping is permitted on any
island within the National Wildlife Park.
