The second largest island after Phuket, Ko Chang consists of over 70% virgin rainforest. Beautiful coral reefs, high mountain peaks, several scenic waterfalls, a rich variety of cuisine and great nightlife, make it one of the most sought-after holiday destinations.
The city of Trat is a starting point for Ko Chang island group or forays into outlying gem and Cambodian markets. Those enthralled by shopping will be delighted as Trat has more markets for its size than almost any other town in Thailand due to Cambodian coastal trade.
