Thai Elephant Island, experience bathing baby elephants.

Thailand's Elephant Island is the second largest island in Thailand. It is named after its shape resembling a lying elephant, and also because King Rama V of Thailand once visited the island, making it famous. Experience the liveliness of Phuket, witness the prosperity of Similan Island, and enjoy the summer of Koh Samui. You must come to the pure and natural, tranquil and flawless Elephant Island, where there are orange beaches and sunsets that belong to you. The pure white sandy beaches, crystal clear blue sea, lush green forests and mountains can be seen everywhere, like the Peach Blossom Spring in Tao Yuanming's pen. On the island, people usually gather on the west coast, which is divided into several distinct beaches: White Sand Beach, Kongpao Beach, Kabei Beach, and Lonely Beach. The famous Bangbao Fishing Village is located near Kabei Beach, and it takes a relatively primitive road section to get there. On the east coast, most of the residents are indigenous people, and of course there are also some homestays and hotels, but there are two beautiful mangrove forests on the east coast. Tips The consumption level is okay, and there are roadside stalls selling rice with toppings. Between 30-50 baht, home-style dishes are priced between 70-80 baht. From March to May, the climate on Elephant Island is hot and dry, while from June to October it is the rainy season. On the island, you can only rent a car for self-driving or rent a motorcycle. Most hotels, restaurants, and bars are clustered on the west coast. "The Chinese Restaurant" was filmed at the White Sand Beach, which is also a relatively lively and well-developed beach. Island hopping does not cover the entire island, as some parts of the island are not yet open. Sea urchins can be found everywhere, you can pick them up, but be careful not to get pricked. Transportation: You can depart from Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport with a round-trip ticket for 900 baht or a one-way ticket for 600 baht. You can also take a bus from Trat province. In half an hour, arrive at the pier and transfer to the ferry to Xiang Island. Special features of the amusement park. Give the baby elephant a bath, enjoy a seaside spa, hop to an island, and go diving. Off-road vehicle jungle exploration, waterfall diving, and sea fishing.
