Koh Mak is a large island located between Koh Chang and Koh Kood Most of its plains area is coconut plantations. The whole area of this island covers 16 sq.km with a round distance of 27 km. Long coconut beaches and crystal clear sea are the splendid attractions of the island. A natural, tropical island, Thailand's preserved treasure, is an ideal destination for visitors who enjoy a tranquil environment unspoiled by mass tourism. Amongst 10,000 palm trees, there’s a temple, three fishing community villages, rubber plantations, and still uninhabited beaches. Koh Mak is the perfect place to relax, explore, calm your mind and smoothe your senses. Koh Mak Island, where less is more . . . Both islands Rayang Nai and Ko Rayang Nok can be easily reached with sea kayak from our resorts on south coast of Ko Mak. The little island Rayang Nai in the above photo can even be reached on foot at low tide.

Koh Mak is a little island perfect to explore and getting close to nature, bicycle through coconut plantations along the coastline full of thousand coconut palm trees. Before dinner we took a walk along the beach. At that time our steps on beach makes many crabs run into their sandy holes on the beach. A fun game for BieJee and Samantha.

Koh Mak is een redelijk groot eiland dat ligt tussen Koh Chang en Koh Kood maar dan veel rustiger dan eilanden als Phuket, Ko Samui en ook Ko Chang. Je komt hier om te relaxen in je hangmat en van de stralende zee te genieten. Je kunt prima snorkelen bij koralen en languit liggen op helderwitte stranden. Als het eb is kun je lopen naar het nabijgelegen eilandje Ko Kham met zijn mooie koraalriffen en kokospalmen. Er is ook een mogelijkheid een kano te huren en met rustige zee naar de eilandjes in de buurt te canoën. Koh Mak ligt met amper 2.000 bewoners in de beschermde Koh Chang Marine Park archipelago in de provincie Trat. Het is het derde grootste eiland van de provincie met een oppervlakte van amper 16 km². Koh Mak heeft een omtrek van 27 kilometer. De archipel telt 52 eilanden die verspreid liggen over een oppervlakte van 650 km². Bij lage tij kan men wandelen naar het onbewoonde eiland hierboven Koh Rayang Nai. Voor diner maken we nog even een strandwandeling. Alhoewel de zon ondergaat achter de heuvels is er toch een prachtig avondrood te zien. Tegen de avond lopen er veel krabbetjes op het strand. Door onze voetstappen rennen alle krabben weer snel terug in hun zandholletjes. Een leuke bezigheid voor Samantha en BieJee.
