ISLAND ESCAPE …AWAY FROM THE CROWDS

About Koh Kood

Koh Kood, also known as Koh Kut, is a beautiful island located in the Gulf of Thailand. It is known for its stunning beaches, lush tropical landscapes, and its relaxing vibe. This island escape is often missed by tourists visiting Thailand, but definitely worth visiting!
 
Here are 5 reasons why you should consider visiting Koh Kood.
  • Pristine Beaches: Koh Kood boasts some of the most pristine and unspoilt beaches in Thailand. With soft white sands and crystal-clear turquoise waters, beaches like Klong Chao Beach and Bang Bao Beach offer a perfect backdrop for both relaxation and water activities. These beaches are often less crowded compared to more popular destinations, allowing you to enjoy a natural serene beach experience.

 

  • Natural Beauty: The island’s natural beauty is a major draw for visitors. Koh Kood is covered in dense tropical rainforests, waterfalls, and lush vegetation. Exploring the island’s interior on foot or by renting a motorbike is a great way to immerse yourself in its natural wonders. Don’t miss the chance to visit the Klong Chao Waterfall, where you can take a refreshing dip in the cool freshwater pools.

 

  • Peace & Tranquility: Unlike some of the more touristy Thai islands, Koh Kood offers a quieter and more laid-back atmosphere. If you’re seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, this island is an excellent choice. The absence of major crowds and bustling nightlife contributes to the sense of serenity that many travelers crave.

 

  • Snorkeling & Diving: The waters surrounding Koh Kood are teeming with marine life and vibrant coral reefs. Snorkeling and diving enthusiasts will find plenty to explore beneath the waves. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver, you can discover underwater wonders and encounter colorful fish, sea turtles, and other fascinating sea creatures.

 

  • Authentic Local Experience: Koh Kood provides an opportunity to experience authentic Thai island life. The island has a small population of local residents, and you can engage with them to learn about their culture and way of life. Visiting local markets, trying traditional Thai cuisine, and interacting with friendly locals can offer a unique and genuine travel experience. Remember that Koh Kood is relatively less developed than some other Thai islands, so amenities and infrastructure might be more basic. This aspect contributes to its charm and appeal for travellers seeking an off-the-beaten-path destination.

 

Where to stay?

Tolani Resort Koh Kood really is the epitome of an island hideaway. This delightful beachfront resort features spacious bungalows and villas, with private terraces and sea views from most of the Polynesian themed guest accommodation. The hotel provides one of the largest activity and dive centres on the island, so guests can enjoy not only the beauty and peacefulness of the resort, but also everything this beautiful island has to offer.

 

How to get there?

We recommend that you fly to Trat , then take a taxi to Laem Sok Pier (approx 60 mins), followed by a ferry to Ao Salad Pier on Koh Kood (approx 60 mins) and then road transport arranged by hotel (30 mins).
