Underwater Adventure, Enjoy the Beauty of the Fish and Coral Reefs

Ko Wai

If you are already visiting Ko Chang, most tourists would not miss a chance to dive at Ko Wai. Just by putting on your goggles and floating at a short distance from the shore, you would be able to see submassive coral, staghorn coral and brain coral. It is said to be the widest coral reef in the Trat Sea. The beach in front of Ko Wai is divided into 3 sections which are separated by rocks. There are paths that go through the woods to avoid the rocks and take you to other beaches.

The sand on the beaches of Ko Wai is red-brown. This island is a peaceful place; ideal for simply relaxing. In addition, it is very popular among those who love to fish. Moreover, there are nearby islands; namely, “Ko Ngam” and “Ko Lao Ya”, which are also worth paying a visit to.
