Koh Phra Thong, also known as Golden Buddha Island, is a remote and pristine island located off the coast of Phang Nga Province in southern Thailand. The island boasts stunning beaches, mangrove forests, and diverse ecosystems, making it a haven for nature lovers and eco-tourists. With its unique geography and rich biodiversity, Koh Phra Thong offers visitors a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The island is home to a small community of sea gypsies known as the Moken people, who have lived in harmony with nature for generations. Koh Phra Thong remains largely undeveloped, with only a handful of eco-resorts and guesthouses catering to adventurous travelers seeking an authentic and off-the-beaten-path experience. Visitors to Koh Phra Thong can enjoy activities such as birdwatching, kayaking through mangrove forests, and exploring the island's pristine coastline and coral reefs.
