The small and unassuming island of Koh Phra Thong is the latest in a long line of holiday havens to emerge in Thailand's turquoise waters. Surrounded by dense mangroves and rich with wildlife, this flat-topped island is the perfect base for a quiet getaway. For those looking for an active and adventurous Koh Phra Thong holiday, there are plenty of things to do, from horseback riding on the beach to exploring mangrove forests by paddle board – or just admiring the pristine shores while overlooking the Andaman Sea. Consider taking a boat or ferry from Ao Nang, the port town of Krabi Province, to explore
some nearby attractions like Railay Beach and the popular dive sites of Hin Daeng and Hin Muang — known for their beautiful rock formations. There are also many hiking trails on the island for those who want to experience nature up close. The hike from Tong Sala Pier to Samila Beach takes about one hour and leads straight through a forest; upon reaching it you'll be welcomed by a beautiful bay with white sand and turquoise water, the ultimate reward after working up a sweat.
