Thailand’s unspoiled Koh Kradan island off the coast of Trang province was ranked one of the best of the ‘Top 100 Beaches on Earth 2023‘ by the UK website World Beach Guide.
Top secret made the top one hundred including Railay Beach in Krabi province (9), Freedom Beach in Phuket (18), Laem Beach on Koh Yao Yai island in Phang Nga province (21) and Tanot Bay Beach on Koh Tao island in Surat Thani province (44).
Koh Kradan is arguably the most picturesque of the 40 Trang Islands mendacity off Thailand’s Andaman Coast and comes without the hustle and bustle of in style vacationer destinations like Koh Phi Phi or Phuket.
Unlike the close by Koh Muk island, Koh Kradang has no village or local life. There are only small resorts and a minimart, and the the rest of the island is a part of Hat Chao Mai National Park.
The World Beach Guide named Koh Kradan the most effective beach on earth by nature of its largely untouched pure beauty, clear waters, powder-like sand, and noiseless environment.
The island’s main seashore is Paradise Beach, house to 1.5 kilometres of white sand and turquoise waters. On the west facet of the island, there’s a small rocky seaside known as Sunset Beach accessible by a path in the forest.
World Beach Guide said…
“The waters of the Andaman Sea which encompass the island are relatively sheltered and shallow, which suggests they are all the time warm i.e., perfect for swimming. On prime of that they are crystal clear making for some wonderful snorkelling within the protected waters.
“One thing to notice although is the water may be very shallow right here at low tide and you’ll have to paddle fairly a means earlier than it’s deep sufficient to swim correctly.
“For those feeling particularly energetic there’s a in style kayak route across the island which may be accomplished in less than three hours, even at a leisurely pace.”
