Koh Hong Day Trip

Koh Hong is a breathtaking stop on many day trips from Koh Yao Yai to Ao Phang Nga National Park. Shielded by government preservation efforts, this untouched island retains its natural charm, with no construction except for a few park ranger cabins.

Shaped like a triangle and framed by towering limestone cliffs, Koh Hong offers two serene beaches and crystal-clear waters ideal for swimming and photography. Lush jungle-covered mountains surround the island, creating a sense of secluded paradise. Adventurous visitors can climb the 400-step trail to the panoramic viewpoint, offering one of the most stunning 360-degree views in Phang Nga Bay.

Often included in island hopping tours from Koh Yao Yai, Koh Hong is a must-see for nature lovers, snorkelers, and anyone seeking raw, unspoiled beauty in southern Thailand.
