Attractions: Koh Phra Thong is of private atmosphere, the island in the middle of the sea which is not quite popular for tourists because accommodation is hard to find. Nevertheless, its pure nature is the islands attraction to touch. Koh Phra Thongs beaches are at the west and can walk from northern to southern portion with marvelous scenery along the beach and will look very wide during low tide. The beach is not white since the mangroves on the island increased sediment to the shore mixing with water. Koh Phra Thongs outstanding feature is its very wide Savanna on the island making the area not looking like the island anymore. The filed is green in the rainy season and turing to beautiful golden color at the end of winter which is so-called The Safari of the Andaman
Facilities: Two resorts, not luxurious but having completed facilities to make you feel happy on this island.
