Activities
in Koh Chang The main thing to do
when in Koh Chang is to relax. Other than that, there are
numerous activities for visitors such as fishing, snorkeling
and visiting nearby islands. In addition, many resorts rent
out kayaks and arrange jungle treks as well as provide all
day boat tours to the nearby islands. Moreover, scooters can
be rented in most places, which make the island easier to
explore independently, however the driver should have some
two-wheel experience as the roads have a tendency to fade
away to nothing more than tracks.
Furthermore,
there are diving schools at all of the 4 largest beaches on
the west coast, where tours can be booked or various diving
licenses can be obtained and sailing-tours can also be booked
in many resorts and travel agencies.
Best
time to visit Koh Chang and other islands The season is from October
to May as from mid May to mid October most of the resorts
are closed, but visitors will still be able to find a few
open, as some of the owners actually live there and are open
all year round.
Dining
delights in Koh Chang Koh Chang is still virtually
an untouched gastronomic paradise as the islanders have made
a living fishing in the beautiful blue seas for centuries.
There are plenty of seafood restaurants dotted around the
island and with the recent addition of a number of resorts,
visitors can now enjoy a wide range of local and international
cuisines.
As the island only has a single road and most restaurants
are located on the road or in resort compounds, they are easy
to find. It just takes a little looking around to find a place
that suits your fancy. Reservations are not normally required
but if you want to dine further up the scale it is best to
book in advance.
