Situated within Hat Chao Mai National Park in Trang province, this two-kilometer-long paradise boasts fine white sand, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant marine life. After a four-month seasonal closure, the island is ready to welcome travelers seeking natural beauty and tranquility, reports NNT.

Koh Kradan’s recognition is well-deserved, thanks to its pristine environment. Its azure waters are perfect for swimming and water sports, offering captivating views of coral reefs and tropical fish. During the closure, conservation efforts were prioritized to protect the island’s fragile ecosystem.

Visitors can look forward to a diverse array of activities such as snorkeling, diving, kayaking, and pure relaxation. The available accommodation choices cater to a wide range of budgets. With the island’s reopening, travelers from across the globe can once more immerse themselves in its natural beauty and timeless allure, solidifying its status as a top destination for nature enthusiasts and beach lovers.

Also to reopen on Oct 1 is Maya Bay on Koh Phi Phi Ley in Krabi province. The renowned Similan Islands and Surin Islands will be available to foreign and Thai tourists from Oct 15.
