Must-sees & Must-Dos in Koh Kradan?
What to do and see in Koh Kradan
Koh Kradan is a small island so apart from its beaches and in particular the isolated Sunset Beach accessible by a short 10-minute walk through the forest, there is nothing to visit there. On the other hand, you can go and discover the surrounding islands and in particular the astonishing Emerald Cave in Koh Muk. You can also do some nice snorkeling excursions to the islands of Koh Waen and Koh Chueak or an excursion to the sublime Koh Rok, further away.
