 This
is a small island to the north of Koh Phangan, which can be reached either
from Surat Thani or Chumphon. There are several beautiful beaches and
diving areas around the island. Simple bungalows are available. Like Koh
Tarutao, Koh Tao was once a place where political prisoners were detained.
Nearby Kok Nang Yuan is a coral island with a high viewpoint and long
white sandy beaches.[Visit Thailand Guidebook] |
