#PaddyDoyle #Thailand #KohChang
Ko Mak and Ko Kood are both nice as well. And there's the other Ko Chang over on the other side of Thailand that I've wanted to visit. No roads so you have to walk everywhere on the island. Thailand is definitely looking tempting now that things are getting more relaxed around the world.

Love Koh Chang ! Great James bond intro music! You are brave mate. I would not cross that bridge. Wish I had a few of those fish tacos and a margaritas. I will be stopping there. Excellent video Paddy.
👅🤣👅
🤣

That Countdown timer killed me! 🤣🤣 And pleased to see it's not just me that struggles with simple menu choices!
The bridge is built on two purposes, 1st = to show the name of the village and welcome banner. 2nd = like crossing street skywalk in Bangkok, but this one is crossing river skywalk. So, it is strong enough to walk across, even its handheld is shaken. But the local villagers are get used to and no need even to hold their hands on it while crossing anyway.
Smooth editing and presentation as always. Love your videos.
💚👍👍
Every time I encounter your videos I just feel like I'm somewhere else. It's a way of traveling that I like very much. Thank you! : )

Have a Nice Time on Koh Chang. Good Luck Paddy and Take Care. 🙏
Another great video Paddy, like the way you tell it how it really is, and see the humor in it too 👍
Koh Chang is a beautiful island! I wanted to visit for about 2 years and finally got the chance after quitting my job at Thaiger News in Bangkok.
Interesting that the girl at the restaurant recommended Coral resort.
That’s were me and my wife always stay when we are on koh chang.
Love hanging out in the pool watching the sunset. There’s a lot of good restaurants relatively close and okay bars.
Koh Chang is a beautiful island and the best thing about it is it doesn't have all these Instagram influencer life coach yoga hippie guru types. Much more down to earth and relaxing than Phangan for example.
Thanks Paddy have always wanted to get to Ko Chang
this was awesome!
Koh Chang: My favorite place on the planet! You should visit Lonely Beach for the nightlife. But don’t stay overnight too close, cos it gets VERY loud at night. Then you should visit the Pier closeby. Also Long Beach on the other side of the island is also a very peaceful place to visit for a day.Also try and squeeze in the waterfall (there are a few), but the one you pay to visit (nature reserve) is well worth it, if only for the pretty views and wonderful swim.
This takes me back and is such a beautiful reminder. Thanks Paddy!!cant wait to go back. It’s been waaayyy too long. Keep up the great work. I love you videos!!!
Incredible Koh Chang.. always wanted to go There.
I love it! I hope to go to Ko Chang next month 🤩

Hello Paddy Omg that bridge bit scary lol the tacos looked amazing cheers to the cocktails. Never been to Koh Chang great video take care.
I just went to El Barrio based on your recommendation. I loved it. The food and the cocktails were amazing 😻
Koh Chang is my favourite island in Thailand. Beautiful beaches and not so crowded and expensive then the other islands
Pls Visit my Place, Oroquieta City Province of Misamis Occidental Its More Fun in Philippines
Thanks for sharing beautiful tour of Koh Chang! Would love to sit down and enjoy the sunset at 17:32😎
❤️🙏🏻Paddy made my evening! 💞
Thanks for the previous journey with dreamy... On to the new adventures with random tourist food and spoken advertisements... It almost makes me glad of covid and the humbleness it brought to the world........ Apologies I couldn't complete watching.....
Look forward to part 2 of this 😮
We are flying to Thailand in two weeks for a month, and just that clip of you drinking a Pina Colada in the pool is getting me pretty excited
A big fan of Koh Chang. Stayed at white sands about 5 times and lonely beach 2 times. Great running all over the place.
Love it!!
Been to Koh Chang several times and it is the best. Make sure you do the 4 island snorkel tour as those guys are great.
Enjoy Paddy. Great way to start with a couple of cocktails 🍸
Thanks 👍
One word to describe Koh Chang - MASSIVE!
Love Koh Chang, I went in December, it's fairly quiet through the week or was then, weekend buy with Thai people. Was lovely
Great video Paddy 😍 Like the “raw” material 👏 felt like I was in Mallorca with all the Spanish music 🎶😅😂😂
❤❤❤
Hi Paddy , it's true that Koh Chang is a beautiful island but Koh Kood is even more beautiful , wilder with wonderful beaches . Enjoy
Pls Visit my Place, Oroquieta City Province of Misamis Occidental Its More Fun in Philippines
Take a shot every time Paddy says massive 🤣
Just got back. Really quiet, which I liked. Stayed at the Bamboo resort. 1000 B per night with pool. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Also stayed at Sapparot in Klong Proa. Very nice rooms and friendly owners, also 1000 per night.
We were just there this weekend. Watching your video now
Koh Chiang is AWSOME ! A great Island to hang out on and drive a motorbike around . You are going to love it.
Koh Chang got a lot of place to visit. Beaches, waterfalls and plenty of beers. I visit it twice and hope can do it again
Wow...Amazing thanks.
I have been to koh chang at El barrio and it was brilliant
Very nice. Enjoy your stay.
We enjoyed Koh Chang alot - good local vibe, and found a great chill spot at Mr T Reggae Bar in the evening for some great local music and food. He's a great host!
The temple on the far eastern side of Koh Chang is a good contrast, I think the roaming cook visited a popular restaurant around the mangroves there
Hi Paddy, some good places are Rasta View cafe bar, Toscana Italian Restaurant, El Barrio and secluded beach at Bluehaven bay
Hi Paddy. Nice to see you on an adventure again. Hope you had enough time to explore that gorgeous island. Looking forward to the upcoming videos from Koh Chang. Cheers!
Enjoy Paddy
Nice dude. Digging this video, reminds me of some of your earlier ones. Hitting the road, grabbing a tasty beverage, finishing off with a swim at the pool. I am envious my dude.
I stayed at the Santhiya Resort in Koh Chang in 2020 and it was stunning! Will definitely be trying out El Barrio next time I'm on the island
i'm booked in there in April!! Hope its as good as the one on Koh Yao Yai!! :-)
That dark room instead of the balcony with sea view. That would put me off . Looks you take it easy without drama. Interesting video, thanks for share with us.
Koh Chang and Koh Kood (Koh Cut) are my favorite islands in all of Thailand. I’ve been there so many times for so many years. Always return there
I really wants to visit koh Chang, I had been watching so many videos regarding koh Chang, from many blogers, but I like your videos so much as the way you explain the things while showing videos, it's just amazing.....
Sir, waiting for full koh Chang video.
😃
Welcome to Koh Chang, drive carefully and have fun.😊
The intro is very good, I also liked this little bridge.I love the town of Trat and the surrounding islands!...new sub here
I had drove from Bangkok to Koh Chang in 2018, I stayed 10 days. There are some small restaurants with unique vibe over View point, don't remember the names.
Hi Paddy, You've got to see Koh Kood and by the way if you want some really nice Italian food on Koh Chang drop by at Mordi di Fuggi in Kai Bae!
Koh chang is my fave part of Thailand. The AWA is a great spot too!
Have fun. I love Koh Chang
thanks mate!
I have been to Koh Chang for 8 straight years!! My favorite places to Eat is "I do i do" For breakfast, a private little place with a nice beach, and i usually end up on "Magic Garden" In lonely beach for dinner, Their food for me is top tier, and such a cozy place! Going down 1th November for 3 weeks
Hey Paddy all of the islands around Koh Chang are gorgeous and all very different. Head off from Bang Bap to Koh Wai where there are loads of Persian and rag doll cats!. Koh Mak and Koh Kham are beautiful!
Not forgetting Koh Chang itself, we’ve been going there for years, it’s a beautiful island. If you need any recommendations give me a shout! Of all of them though, Koh Kut has to be the probably the best Thai island, if you haven’t been you ‘must’ go. It all starts with the approach on the ferry…..You don’t need to worry about the confused songthaew system from the pier to accommodation as you will just whizz past on dreamy!

Have been a couple of times to Koh Chang, and it kind of depends on the season. But for me it always has been the perfekt get away location, just laying on the beach, having a beer or two - great food everywhere, and lovley for strolling around with the bike
Love koh chang, you should check koh kood is amazing.
The chill next door is much nicer to stay in if you have the money
Me and a couple of guys ive met on Koh Chang always go back here every winter, we have atleast 4 nights per week at El Barrio. The Fajitas is the best ive ever had. Also their guacamole is insane with homemade nachos
Cannot wait to go to Koh Chang, but I imagine 2023 will be busier than this year, due to the travel restrictions being lifted for all countries to visit again. Great video. do enjoy watching all of your Thailand adventures.
Hi Paddy, I love the boardwalk thru the mangrove and the way they only let the most courageous (or dumbest?🥳) cross a river. I thought it was hilarious how they charge you and give you a ticket just to have someone else take it 10 meters later.
haha right!
Ah Love El Barrio & their fish tacos & Lorena! She's an awesome host
The Tacos 🌮 and Margarita look amazing .
Ko Chang is the third largest island in Thailand after Ko Phuket and Ko Samui.
Awesome 👍
Hi Paddy... Go and check out the ghost ship of Koh Chang... Nce Beach, pool and food.. If they are open. You also need to take a snorkeling excursion it's so good.
Unfortunately Koh Chang has been hard hit by covid. Hopefully it comes back to its formal glory. I take the family every year for a decade. Hit me up if your keen for a beer.
I recommend staying at the Nivana resort. It's got a beach front and surround by jungle with a pool out in the jungle with a rocky waterfall cascading into it
Koh Chang. Lonely Beach. Maybe have lunch at Little Eden and stay in a jungle bungalow up the hill from the Beach. If you do, please say hi to the guitar playing part owner, a Brit, named David Newman. He's in Trat until Monday. However, his friends might be around to take you on a hike up the mountainside through the jungle to some very nice spots. It's a very "cool" spot to kick back, chat and get to know the area a little more. I've "sat-in" with the local musicians around Lonely Beach. Great fun. dcb
copy that!
Wow I need to get back already! Great vlog Paddy just come back from here I couldn’t believe the devastation on the small businesses & bars hopefully they’ll get back and rebuild. When you go to bang bao pier try restaurant on the left-hand side called the ChillHouse lovely Thai couple fantastic views! The food is fantastic but they’ve had to reduce the menu due to the situation and lack of custom. PS you should’ve stayed at Seaview hotel you get a cable car to breakfast with having a look and have their own restaurants as well on the beach cheers for now Craig
Pina colada - my favourite cocktail. Cathy and Kevs x
Near Tees kitchen is a road into the island to a waterfall (along a small river) There's one spot where the road crosses river and locals their bikes and kids play in water. Was a nice memory for me
that mexican restaurant is the best mexican restaurant I've found in Thailand... amazing food and a must go! There's also a small vegan place on koh chang, absolutely amazing and chilled place
Which vegan restaurant, I’m on the island now:)
@@mehliya603 tofu kitchen 🫡
Our favourite vacation island so far, hope you try koh Kut, Kai Bai beach side is the sandy side while to the east is more pebbles yet much nicer and cheaper accommodation. Just north of you is the is the Klong Phlu waterfall it is the nicest and has a few levels if the guard does not stop you climbing up. And this time of year it will be switched “on” while others may be dry, but honestly you have seen much better. following the river down there are some beautiful resorts on the beach and lagoon, following the road to Kai Bai a bicycle and book hire store on the left, now if you look right a board walk takes you thru palm trees over the small river as it goes to the sea, the beach to the left there is pristine and remote, watch out for sand flies on remote beaches tho I believe most beaches are remote just now. If you follow the horse shoe shape coast road south into the hills the Rasta bar is a nice break and view, always see the black and white sea eagles fishing in the bay and around the piers there. Also some nice resorts. Continue a little farther the road narrows and you come to the Grand Lagoon once a vacation and social gathering spot for Taxin Sinawatra, you know that Thai Guy who owned Liverpool F.C. He trenched out the beach there and sailed his cruise ship aground “a casino” with nearby helipad ,tho hasn’t been back for years. There are a lot of house boats for rent and you pay 40 baht entrance and can use the swimming pool on one of the boats. BUT THE BEACH IS TO DIE FOR never seen more than 6 people on it , a waterfall tips into the lagoon and pools of water lilies just minutes from the sea, and possibly the biggest elephants you will see.
Its a great run for dreamy, on the other end of the loop East is the mangrove swamp with concrete boardwalk, already mentioned in the comments the wat Salak Petch that is there is a new build stunning at a cost of £20,000.Take a few days to explore again resorts down by the bays edge on this east side are very nice most are on the water. White Sands (west and close to the ferry) is usually busy-pre-covid and has more to offer for night life if you are on foot. Enjoy I will be there for xmas.
I stayed awa last week.. and also ate at the Mexican joint.. best burritos I’ve ever eaten.. waited for happy hour at the awa bar, buy one get one free .. 🙏
Hi Paddy, great video pal! thanks for the fruitful impressions!:) I am luckily planning to visit Ko Chang beginning of coming month. Do you know if any reopening measurements for the national park have been implemented yet? best
I look 👀 forward to the rest of ur blog it’s my goal to go to it and walk along white sands beach and there an irsh bar u can stay in and the night time food looked brilliant I seen it on gef carter’s blog I was staying in Phuket and they had a happy hour with cocktails 🍸 like u I was beside the pool bringing them it felt 👍 enjoy 😉
Pissing myself at the countdown tune
Good stuff! I'visited both the mexican restaurant and the hotel when i came to Ko Chang about 4 years ago. I wasn't particularly impressed with the island but we had a great time because of the female company. It's brought back a few memories.

Top vlog once again, Paddy! This made me crave fish tacos!! And that resort would not have been an option on a Budgeteers episode. LOL! Wait..unless you create a vlog that features the resort and they let you stay for free! Just like in Budgeteers Season 1 when you recovered from possible heat stroke!
I like the “getting to” type of video
Did you hear me yelling at you to get off that bridge? You were making my palms sweaty.
I thought I should say how good the video quality is . I often watch your stuff on my 85 cm big screen . So you still good in Hi def.
😜😜
Try Ko Chang Noi in the Andaman sea just off Ranong .......Totally lovely.😎
In Koh Chang, I recommend a resort called 'Elephant & Castle' - the owner is a nice English chap, and he rustled-up an epic belly-busting full English breakfast. I assume you are heading for Koh Kood soon, so I am digging into my photo archive to find the restaurant serving THE BEST Pad Thai and Masaman I ever had...
..ok, I found it. It's a cafe called 'Cheewa COFFEE and CAKE'. Google says 'temporarily closed'. I hope this is not the case when you arrive because the coffee, milk tea and seemingly everything they made was "next level"
Paddy, I stayed at the tropical hideaway. Very nice and right on the beach. You can walk to the right along the beach to the restaurants.
Then after you’ve got Koh Kood and Koh Mak nearby! 🏝. The best cool place I found to stay awhile was as far as you can go on the road to the south of the island Bang Bao, certainly visit the pier and the beach is glorious! I loved Nature Beach Resort too by Lonely Beach! Try the CoCo restaurant very friendly people and fantastic view and food 🍱
Yup that beach at the far end, past Bang Bao pier, is something special. Perfect tropical beach environment...from the sand to the trees.
Pls Visit my Place, Oroquieta City Province of Misamis Occidental Its More Fun in Philippines
Recommended you to visit Koh Kood 💕
El Barrio is excellent. Next time try staying at Bangbao Beach resort, nice air conditioned wooden bungalows on the sand, absolute beach front. Tell Jebbie, Pat and Keith sent you and you’ll get a discount.
Koh Chang is my second home, (hopefully my first in the not to distant future). If you're still around Kai Bae check out the Mount coffee shop, best views for miles. Try Oodies in white sand beach for a decent bar with music, and say hello to the old git from me :)
U have to Go Koh Kood IT s near koh chang! IT s so unique and quiet Island With blue Water beaches and mega Nice Palm beaches who are untouched!
The ghost ship after Klong kloi for drome film and strange story. 15 Palms on White Sands for great food. Salakphet and Salakok walkways through the mangroves.
haha love the Countdown reference you should have had Carol Vorderman in a bubble when time came to check the bill was correct
Hi Paddy, try White Sand Beach. There is a lot of great places to stay. I can recommend Bang Bao Beach where you will have the feeling of being on the tropical beach. There are a lot of funny-looking houses boasts there and very quiet and peaceful. The roads are like the rollercoaster style and very scenic. Another day you can go to the other side of Koh Chang. Back to the ferry place and keep driving until you can't get any further. There is a viewpoint and a small town with fishing boats and some restaurants at the viewpoint. Koh Chang is my favorite island in Thailand for sure ;-).
Enjoy Koh Chang, Paddy. It is a great island. I am coming to Thailand myself in April and stay for 2 months. Maybe I will see you there. Take care ;-).
Hi dear. Paddy. There r many few beaches in Koh Chang. There is rush & busy White Sand beach with bigger market etc. But I think The Lonely beach is quite relaxed one & cheap too. Phuket ,Krabi area is more expensive but Koh Chang is quite cheap.. besides I say the whole of Thailand is very good ,over all. Good luck.
I went there before , It was ok , didn’t like it much but they said if you takes a left instead of the right when you get there , it is more peaceful . Koh Mak, Koh Kood and Kho Wai are peaceful as well . Kho Wai , there is no electricity but the generator will comes on at night . Dreamy still alive , I am surprised , with only 50 cc, she went there and back again. I learned something new , I didn’t know how the Mexican comes to Kho Chang and why they like get there ?😀😀
Nature resort on Lonely Beach is amazing
Hi Paddy, you should visit Koh Kood too.
hey Paddy! Koh kood is definitely next level!
if you're staying longer in Koh chang you have to go to "PIZZERIA SPAGHETTERIA TOSCANA" best and very cheap Italian food!
