How to get there
from my place to beach 1200m
Ao Tapao beach
This is the longest on the island and until recently was home to just two resorts – the excellent Shantaa and the run down Koh Kood Cabana. That’s all changed and a trio of new resorts Koh Kood Paradise Beach, with 200 metres of private beachfront plus the smaller Medee Resort and Sea Far Resort all offer good 3 -4 star standard accommodation. South of Sea Far Resort is just 500 metres of quiet, undeveloped beach. Nearby is a village, Khlong Hin Dam, which as a temple and is also home to the island’s hospital, bank and police station.
Getting around
you will see the nice beach if you travel by motorbike. Klong Hin beach 400 metres long and with just a couple of locally owned and run bungalow resorts, it;s off the beaten track and a good spot to do nothing for a couple of days. But the budget resorts – Klong Hin Beach Resort and Montana Hut are popular with Russian package tourists so mealtimes can be an adventure. Access is via the same track off the main road that leads to Takian beach.
