There are several countries which serves as a tourist hub. Thailand is one of those countries with many beautiful places to visit. For those who do not like battling (or putting up with) crowds, then Koh Phayam island could be one of the best places to visit. Another blessedly crowdless place is Koh Kut island where there are cheap accomodations with internet access. If you want to relax at the beach sand then Koh Jum is another haven which includes small restaurants and bars.
Key Points:
- Over 14 million people flock to the Land of Smiles each year, but you can still find quiet beaches in Thailand if you want to escape the crowded tourist hot spots.
- This large, mountainous island remains largely covered in jungle, and getting here involves taking a boat from Laem Sok pier on the mainland.
- Resorts are clustered along a 12 kilometer long sandy bay on the west coast looking out across the wide blue expanse of the Andaman sea.
“Ao Yai on the west coast is the largest sandy bay here.”
