#Kohchang

Koh Chang is emerging as a noteworthy destination for Thai and international travelers who seek a nature-forward escape. The island’s appeal centers on rainforests, pristine beaches, and a relaxed pace that resonates with Thai hospitality and communal spirit.

Located off Trat province in eastern Thailand, Koh Chang ranks among the country’s larger islands. Data from Thailand’s Tourism Authority shows a steady rise in visitors in recent years, with 2024 marking a strong rebound after the pandemic. The growth mirrors a shift toward slower, nature-rich experiences in a post-pandemic world, while underscoring the need to protect local culture, ecosystems, and infrastructure.
