Thailand Travel - Regions of Thailand - East

Recommended hotels in the East of Thailand

Thailand's Eastern sea coast, from Chonburi on the way to Trat is among the most attractive and complete seaside destinations. Nature has endowed the area with waterfalls and mountains, beaches and islands, and man has added some faculties and conveniences to make it as truly beautiful and enjoyable destination area. The eastern coastal region is also rich in archaeological and historical terms.

Pattaya, just a two hour drive south of Bangkok, still remains Thailand's liveliest beach resort. Located on the Gulf of Siam, the four kilometer beach offers a heady mix of water sports, value for money accommodation and a huge variety of entertainment. Just famous for its night-time party zone, Pattaya also has first class golf courses and surprisingly, lots of family attractions.

Bang Saray Detailed interactive location map
Until recently Bang Saray was a sleepy fishing village where the only activity was the coming and going of the small wooden fishing craft as they depart each day to make their catch. Recently, due to the superb location it has been "slightly" developed by one or two high end villa projects. However, it still maintains its "old world charm". The gentle sloping beach and the calm turquoise waters are rarely busy and offer an excellent opportunity for relaxing and eating local barbecue and seafood dishes. Only a couple of hundred metres in from the beach road stands the impressive Bang Saray Temple (Wat) with its tall roofs and highly decorated spires. If you are an early riser it is possible to see the monks on their daily rounds, collecting food and performing ritual blessings to the people.

Koh Samet - Koh means island in Thai, and Samet is tree that grows in abundance on the island, famed for its bark which is used in traditional medicine and boat building. Koh Samet is a national park, although the beach strip is nicely maintained. This land is reached by ferry from Banpae. Upon arrival see for yourself why this island has always been so popular.

Koh Chang - Koh Chang has always been a favourite get-away for Thai people. Lush and mountainous, this quiet island, full of natural treasures, is a jewel just waiting to be discovered.
Only 360 kilometres from Bangkok, Koh Chang is an island paradise with pristine forests and rich marine life. The largest of 47 islands off the coast of Trat province, its seeming inaccessibility means that the island has been largely overlooked by visitors, making it a true island get- away. However, an excellent road from Bangkok and a short flight from Bangkok to Trat airport, have meant that the destination is now starting to get the attention that it deserves.
Mountainous Koh Chang has an undisturbed interior of dense tropical rain forest, home to many species including macaque monkeys, barking deer and wild pig. Trekkers can also expect to see more than 70 species of birds. Koh Chang and the islands in this chain were awarded Marine National Park status in 1982 to ensure that this pristine environment is preserved.
Whilst exploring the jungle is a possibility, the less energetic who simply want to relax on the beach won't be disappointed! The whole of the western side of the island has white sand beaches, which stretch as far as the eye can see.

Chantaburi - is located in the east of Thailand, about 300 km from Bangkok. The province is rich in natural resources, especially sapphires and rubies. There are many fruit orchards, producing plentiful supplies of tropical fruits such as rambutan, durian and longan (about the Thai fruits). The province is also rich in natural attractions, from pristine beaches to waterfalls and natural parks filled with wild plants. Chantaburi has played an important role in the history of Thailand. After the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767, it was here that king Taksin retreated to. Having regrouped his soldiers he marched back into the central plains and reclaimed Ayutthaya. Chantaburi was later occupied by the French between 1893 and 1904, before an agreement was made, in which Thailand conceded land that now lie in Cambodian territory.

Trat - Trat is the province situated at the east border of Thailand, 315 kilometers from Bangkok. In the province, there are 5 districts, namely Muang, Khao Saming, Laem Ngob, Klong Yai, Bo Rai and 2 sub-districts; Ko Kud and Ko Chang.
The province is close to Chanta Buri and Cambodia in the North and adjacent to the Gulf of Thailand in the South. The east is separated from Cambodia by Buntud Mount Range eastwards from the middle of the province. Weru River separates the west Trat from Chanta Buri.
Ko Chang is the ideal location for the real rest as the weather there is very comfortable with the average temperature not too cold or too hot. Ko Chang is influenced by the northeastern and southwestern storms. That triggers limitations to the water transportation to the group of islands. Between May and October which is the period of southwestern monsoons, the west coast is always visited by storms and thus, not safe for ferry boats. Between November to April is very safe since there are quite a few storms. Most of Trat areas lie in the Gulf of Thailand. This makes the province abundant with tourism resources. Trat has as many as 52 islands, especially Ko Chang include sea, waterfalls and forest. The province is also the source of red sapphire, fine shrimp paste and sweet rakum, a kind of palm of genus Zalacca with sweet and acid taste.
Koh Kood is located at the very end of the Thai eastern maritime territory bordering Cambodia. Koh Kood is the last Island in the Trat Sea Waters. Covering 105 square kilometers, it is the second biggest island of the province of Trat, after Ko Chang. Koh Kood the nature lover destination and save money.
