Discover breathtaking coastlines framed by magnificent high peaks, steep cliffs and luscious hillsides. Koh Chang Marina Salak Phet yacht charter allows you to explore pristine beaches, anchor off deserted islands and dive into true blue waters.
Koh Chang itself is surrounded by clear waters while a terrain of high peaks and steep cliffs provide a magnificent backdrop to its breathtaking coastline. The western side of the island is slowly adapting to tourism, but the eastern side has retained its traditional features. New developments are limited to three stories in a bid to maintain the natural beauty of this island.
The beaches of Koh Chang and its archipelago are just one of the many highlights of a Koh Chang yacht charter. White Sand Beach on Koh Chang is one of the most notable and a popular spots when the sun goes down, with sailors joining the locals at one of the traditional restaurants and bars that scatter the area. If peace and tranquillity is more your scene, head over to Klong Prao beach instead. As you sail the waters of Koh Chang and its islands make sure you pay a visit to the quaint fishing villages such as Bang Bao and Salak Phet. These communities are built on stilts and welcome visitors into their daily life.
No doubt the stunning scenery from the deck of your yacht will keep you entertained for days, but don’t forget to stretch your land legs and explore the heart of the islands. Renowned for their lush and green landscape, they hide idyllic waterfalls which are a sight not to be missed. Than Mayom is the most famous waterfall on Koh Chang and is actually a series of three falls along the stream of Klong Mayom. The fertile rainforest keeps it flowing year round and the large pool at its source offers plentiful fresh water for local life.
Follow the well marked pathway for a picturesque 45 minute climb to the first set of falls and you will be rewarded with spectacular views from the top. Make sure you search out the two stones with inscriptions bearing the initials of King Rama VI and King Rama VII resting on the ground. The second waterfall is about 500 metres east and the third is 1 mile from the first. Another inscribed stone with the initial of King Rama V can be found here and don’t forget your swimsuit for an invigorating and well deserved dip!
The whole archipelago is not only famous for its waterfalls but also abundant coral reefs and long sandy beaches. The whole area is still relatively undiscovered by sailors and Koh Mak is a perfect slice of Thai life. Only 10 miles from Koh Chang it’s worth a full day to explore.
