24th July 2020 / I traveled to Koh Phayam Island for 2 nights (24-25th July 20), and spent one night (26th July 20) in Ranong City, Thailand

At the Pier

Ko Phayam is the second largest Andaman Sea island off the coast of Ranong Province (Ko Chang, about 4 km distant, is the largest). Koh Phayam Island in Thailand has no roads suitable for automobiles, thus motorbikes are the chief means of transport. Tourists hire motorbikes or motorbike taxis at the pier and ride along the road to the resorts. There are two major beaches/bays, i.e., Ao Yai and Ao Kao Kwai (Buffalo Bay).

For those who want to get away from it all, Koh Phayam Island is reminiscent of what Ko Samui was like 30 years ago, before the airport and hotel developments. Ko Phayam is just over 30 km from Ranong, about 2 hours from the mainland’s Phayam Pier by slow boat, 30-40 minutes by speed boat.

From the viewpoint of Khao Kho in Thailand, there’s an area specially reserved for adventurous travelers in Khao Kho to set up their tents and enjoy the pleasant atmosphere of Khao Kho during the day and night; imagining the picture of you lying on the ground while cherishing the precious moment under the ocean of softly sparkling stars, and then wake up in the morning in Khao Kho when the sun comes to freshen you up.
