Koh
Payam is still surrounded by basically natural
environment, no lighting, colorful, and any comfortable
things. You will touch the real
sea gypsies
and natural attractions on this island and nearby
islands e.g.
Bat Island (Koh Kangkao),
Koh Kam Tok,
Koh Kam Yai, Koh Kam Nui, etc.
I
visited a lot of islands in Thailand, there is no
one similar to Koh Payam. Here is back to the basic
indeed. Along the small road while riding a motorbike
across between two bays Ao Kao Kwai (Buffalo Bay) and Ao
Yai (Big Bay), you will find
Anacardium
occidentale.
Touch this in depth,
click the process of Anacardium occidental.
Central of Koh Payam is forest full of wild birds,
monkeys, wild boars, etc. Local people make coconut or
rubber or anacardium occidental plantations.
Koh
Payam is the 2nd largest island of Andaman sea in Ranong
province, after Koh Chang. About 4 kms from Koh Chang.
Koh Payam has no wide road for a car but for a
motorbike. Tourists hire a motor bike at the pier
and ride along the road to the resorts. There two
majors beaches/bays e.g. Ao Yai and Ao Kao Kwai (Buffalo
Bay).
Ao Yai
is the largest bay on the west-coast with a 2 miles of
length and 300m of width, with grey beach
In the north-west is the
Kao Kwai Bay in a
more quiet
beach. Sea water is a bit clearer.
Payam Cottage Resort is one of our recommended
resorts of Kao Kwai Bay.
