Clearly it can be a bit overwhelming to know which island in Thailand is the best to spend your holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In case you are in the same boat: our blog is the right place for you. We have been to Thailand countless times and explored some of the islands on our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this blog article we show you <strong>the most beautiful islands in Thailand<\/strong>. Which islands are for first-timers? Which are for families? And where can I find a hidden island treasure? The answers to your questions are contained in our travel blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Koh Samui: A Classic in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We begin with one of most touristy islands in <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/travelblog\/thailand-en\/\">Thailand<\/a>: Koh Samui. Koh Samui has been <strong>catering for tourists for decades<\/strong>. There is an airport (where several flights from Bangkok land daily) and as much accommodation as there is sand on the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we would like to clear up the myth that Koh Samui is only suitable for package tourists. That\u2019s not the case at all in our eyes. There are also <strong>places away from mass tourism<\/strong> on Koh Samui. Nevertheless: if you go along the main streets of Koh Samui, there is no sense of seclusion and relaxed island vibes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend Koh Samui for all Thailand new-comers. It has beautiful hotels which you can really relax in. Some beaches are also really well suited for a holiday with children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Samui most suited towards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Thailand new-comers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Package holiday travellers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Families with children<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can find our more detailed article here: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/koh-samui-travel-tips\/\">Tips for Koh Samui<\/a><br><strong>Our hotel tip for Koh Samui: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/amari-palm-reef-resort.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Amari Koh Samui<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"18281\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-18281 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Traumstrand-Koh-Samui.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Best Beach Koh Samui\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"18289\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"18289\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-18289 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Boutique-Yachting-Koh-Samui.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Boutique Yachting Koh Samui\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"18286\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"18286\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-18286 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Flugzeug-Koh-Samui.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Koh Samui travel tips\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Koh Phangan: One the Most Beautiful Islands in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Koh Phangan is Koh Samui\u2019s smaller neighbouring island \u2013 and has a completely different vibe. It is more <strong>calm and relaxing on Koh Phangan<\/strong>. The island mainly attracts backpackers and young families. Quite a large yoga scene has now been established on Koh Phangan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We love Koh Phangan.<\/strong> We love the many great restaurants, the <strong>paradise beaches<\/strong> and the island flair. Still we must admit that tourism has not only just arrived in Koh Phangan. Or to put it differently: Koh Phangan is also clearly catered towards tourists \u2013 although to different ones to Koh Samui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you are searching for a relaxing island in Thailand, but don\u2019t want to compromise having good infrastructure (nice hotels &amp; restaurants) , you are in great hands with Koh Phangan. Koh Phangan definitely has the potential to become your <strong>favourite island<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Phangan most suited towards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Backpackers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Families with children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yogis<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beach lovers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can find our island guide here: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/koh-phangan-west-coast-tips\/\">Tips for Koh Phangan<\/a> <strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><br><strong>Our hotel recommendation for Koh Phangan: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/mangata-boutique-bungalows.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Mangata Boutique Bungalows<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27485\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-27485 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Sonnenuntergang.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Koh Phangan Sunset\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27489\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"27489\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-27489 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Thailand.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Koh Phangan Thailand\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27487\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"27487\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-27487 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Phangan-Strand.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Koh Phangan Beach\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Koh Tao: The Diving Paradise in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All good things come in threes: Next to Koh Samui and Koh Phangan also lies Koh Tao, the smallest of the three islands in the gulf of Thailand. Because the three islands are well connected by ferry, it is worthwhile to travel to two or even all three of the islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Koh Tao is an especially popular travel destination for divers. You can find some of the <strong>best diving in Thailand<\/strong>, or even South East Asia around the island. As well as that, there are <strong>paradise beaches and bays<\/strong>, and great snorkelling spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Koh Tao is also blessed with beautiful nature: <strong>mountains and densely covered landscape<\/strong> await you here as well as rocky stretches of coastline with sections of really bizarre rock formations. Koh Tao is criticised for the tiny holiday paradise having transformed into a very touristy island. Nevertheless, you can definitely enjoy a great holiday here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Tao most suited towards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Water sport fans (diving, snorkelling)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beach lovers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Backpackers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our accommodation tip for Koh Tao:<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/ecotao-lodge.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">EcoTao Lodge<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/803;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"803\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27586\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"803\" class=\" wp-image-27586 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen-1024x685.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tauchen.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Koh Tao Diving\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/803;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"803\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27588\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"803\" class=\" wp-image-27588 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps-1024x685.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Tao-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Koh Tao Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Koh Lanta: The Relaxing Thai Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Koh Lanta is a <strong>relaxing mix<\/strong> of lovely nature, beautiful beaches and relaxing island flair. The island is large enough to also take one or two day trips, but still really compact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast to Koh Samui, it is more peaceful on Koh Lanta. Fortunately, large hotel complexes are nowhere to be seen here. Still, the island is in no way dead. In fact it has <strong>great infrastructure<\/strong>. We also found the island\u2019s <strong>old town<\/strong> to be very pretty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We felt really comfortable<\/strong> on Koh Lanta. The island is also fantastic for families with children, thanks to the gently sloping beaches. Those in search of peace or backpackers will also enjoy Koh Lanta. A small negative: we personally find most of the beaches not to be as much of a paradise as Koh Phangan, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Lanta most suited towards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Families with children<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Peace seekers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anyone searching for a good mix (beaches, day trips &amp; an old town)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can find more detailed info here: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/koh-lanta-beaches-insider-tips\/\">Island Guide for Koh Lanta<\/a><br><strong>Our hotel tip for Koh Lanta:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/alanta-villa.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Alanta Villa<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"15916\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-15916 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Khlong-Khong-Beach.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Khlong Khong Beach\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27492\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"27492\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-27492 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Insel-Thailand-Koh-Lanta.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Island Thailand Koh Lanta\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"15925\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"15925\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-15925 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Same-Same-But-Different-Koh-Lanta.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Same Same But Different Koh Lanta\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Phuket: Island for Thailand New-Comers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Phuket is <strong>Thailand\u2019s largest island<\/strong>, which is connected to the mainland via a bridge. If ever the term \u201cmass tourism\u201d were appropriate, then unfortunately it is in Phuket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hilly, green Phuket is <strong>beautiful in terms of landscape<\/strong>. Some beaches are so overflowing with people in the main season that the relaxing island vibe is nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phuket is mainly for people that are <strong>traveling to Thailand for the first time<\/strong> and are looking for a good starting point. The good news: There are really beautiful, sometimes even secluded hotels in Phuket \u2013 you can find our recommendation down below.

Koh Yao Noi &amp; Koh Yao Yai: Insider Tip in Thailand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hello island paradise!<\/strong> Are you on the search for a Thai island far away from mass tourism? Then we can only warmly recommend the two neighbour islands of Koh Yao Noi (north island) and Koh Yao Yai (south island).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two islands are located around a 40 minute boat ride away from Phuket \u2013 but are the complete opposite of it. Both islands are the epitome of <strong>comfort<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The prices are quite high on Koh Yao Noi as well as Koh Yao Yai, which is why the islands <strong>mainly attract couples<\/strong>. But backpackers will also love it here. The only drawback: the <strong>beaches<\/strong> are (with a few exceptions \u2013 see the first photo) definitely not as much of a paradise as you might be used to in Thailand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Yao Noi &amp; Yai most suited towards?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Peace seekers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Couples<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Those avoiding mass tourism<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can get to our detailed island guide here: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/koh-yao-noi-travel-tips\/\">Tips for Koh Yao Noi &amp; Yai<\/a><br><strong>Our hotel recommendation for Koh Yao Noi: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/cape-kudu-koh-yao-noi.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Cape Kudu<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"23587\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" wp-image-23587 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach-1024x684.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Laem-Haad-Beach.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Laem Haad Beach\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"23731\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"23731\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-23731 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Tipps.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Koh Yao Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"23729\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"23729\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" wp-image-23729 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-684x1024.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Koh-Yao-Noi-Sehensw\u00fcrdigkeiten.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Koh Yao Noi Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Koh Chang: Thailand\u2019s second largest Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you looking for an island which you can get to from <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/en\/bangkok-travel-guide\/\">Bangkok<\/a> <strong>without flying<\/strong> and can still get to reasonably quickly? Then Koh Chang could be right for you. The trip takes around 6 hours from Bangkok (bus and ferry) \u2013 and boom, you\u2019re already on the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Koh Chang is Thailand\u2019s second largest island, but has still retained some of its authenticity \u2013 at least in some places. Overall, Koh Chang is one of the rather <strong>touristy<\/strong> islands. (By the way: Koh Chang is not to be confused with the mini island of the same name on Thailand\u2019s west coast.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>landscape<\/strong> of Koh Chang is beautiful. The island is very green and hilly \u2013 just as we like it. In terms of beaches, Koh Chang is certainly not the ultimate destination, but there are some really great bays. By the way, if you manage to make it to Koh Chang, you should also pay a visit to the nearby island of Koh Mak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who is Koh Chang the right island for?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Domestic flight refusers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nature lovers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Island hopping fans (Koh Mak!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our hotel recommendation for Koh Chang: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/th\/the-dewa-koh-chang.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Dewa<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/800;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"800\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27562\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" class=\" wp-image-27562 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps-1024x683.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Koh Chang Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/800;\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"800\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"27560\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" class=\" wp-image-27560 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand-1024x683.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Koh-Chang-Thailand.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Koh Chang Thailand\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disclaimer: Affiliate Links<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This travel guide contains our personal recommendations in the form of affiliate links.
