Discover the beauty of the Koh Chang boat tour. #9

Salak Khok Village, a tiny Fishing settlement, lies to the east of ko Chang, hidden in a small strait and shaped like a pen. The village is hemmed in by mangrove forests in which the Locals make a living by fishing and which also act as a nursery and breeding ground for many marine species. There is a narrow waterway which leads out into the ocean with two islands, Ko Salak and Ko Lim situated at the mouth of the bay, the former obviously being the origin of the area’s name. Visitors here can experience the authentic local fishing lifestyle as well as kayaking around the leafy mangroves and down the natural canals and green waterways using maps given to them by the locals. Those looking for a different atmosphere can take a ride in a ‘Ruea Mad’ Boat, a vessel which is affectionately referred to by the villagers as a ‘Ko Chang Gondola’ due to its resemblance to the famous Italian boats.
Entrance fee: Gondola style Boat trips 200 baht/person (one boat holds four people)ใ. The trip takes around 40 minutes.
