Koh Chang
1 Recommendations: 1 Favorable,
Is an island known to many tourists and is known as the favorite for tourists both Thais and foreigners. The island is suitable for travel to see nature Snorkel the coral reefs. Simple easy to travel because the van to run back every day. But if I suggest to buy the best tour from anywhere. Because prices are not much different. If the trip I recommend that as a group would be more fun.

Faasai resort and Spa
1 Recommendations: 1 Favorable,
Kung Wiman Beach is a small rocky and sandy bay on the Southeast coast of Thailand in Chanthaburi, which is probably destined to be discovered soon but is as yet unspoiled. There are very few western tourists there and most of them stay at Faasai Resort and Spa, a 15 room eco resort with beautiful tropical gardens owned by a Thai New Zealand couple. The resort is quiet and tranquil with a great restaurant and spa and very friendly and helpful staff. Kung Wiman is a small peninsula which has the Gulf of Thailand on one side and Kung Kraben Bay on the other - a marine sanctuary established by the King of Thailand. At the end of the peninsula is an historic fishing village called Hua Laem. Traditional eateries along the beach front sell fresh fish, squid, crabs and shrimps from the local catch - it's a great place to watch kids play on the beach, local fishing boats trawl the coast and the sun sink into the sea. The locals mostly don't speak English but are incredibly friendly - if you don't speak any Thai they will just bring you what they think you will like - such as Tom Yum Soup or grilled squid with spicy chilli sauce. Chanthaburi is half way between Rayong and Trat and shares a mountain border with Cambodia. It is mainly famous for its fruit orchards and gemstone industry but it has many pretty beaches including Kung Wiman, Chao Lao, Ao Yang and Laem Singh. It is an ancient sea port and trading centre and has many historic sites such as the ship building yards of Taksin the Great as well as lovely forests and waterfalls. Crafts include mat weaving, woodwork, pottery, furniture making and gem stone cutting – during the weekends gemstones from all over the world are bought and sold in the old gemstone markets in the city of Chanthaburi.
