Service: Excellent. The staff were welcoming, the food was delicious, the view was beautiful, and the room was clean. Just a small suggestion: the lighting in the room could be brighter.

Overall we really enjoyed this experience. The views are fantastic and the water was calm. Our guide Ton was friendly and took lots of photos and videos of us on the water- No need to bring your phone. Facility has small lockers for your valuables. The transport from your hotel is included, they also provided bottled water and some fresh fruit when we finished our tour. We booked a 2 hour paddle board tour, but could only do about 70 minutes because it was low tide and the water was very shallow in some place. We went in the late moring around 11 am, so I recommend an afternoon time slot. We spoke to Ton who said we can come back later in the day or the next day. Unfortunately the weather didn't permit it. The paddle boards are a bit worn but functional. I recommend that you ask what the best time of day is for paddling when you confirm your booking, as this changes with the weather (amount of rain) and the season. Life jackets weren't offered but we didn't request them either.

Quick facts about Ko Chang
General info
What to know before visiting Ko Chang
What to do in Ko Chang
Ko Chang is best known for water activities, followed by events & shows and outdoor & sports activities, with tours and massages also appearing in bookings. The island’s rhythm across the year shows clear high and low seasons: demand peaks in May and drops to a trough in July, according to Klook booking data. That means you can expect lively beaches, busy water-based outings and more scheduled events in the peak months, while the quieter months are better for tranquil beach time and less-crowded excursions. Decide whether you want peak-season buzz or quieter island downtime.
Based on Klook booking data.
When to visit Ko Chang
Demand builds through the spring and reaches its high point in May, while July is the quietest month of the year; both are clear from Klook booking data. Prices across the year move separately from demand in places: the priciest month is November with a typical price of AUD 127, while the cheapest is July at AUD 37, so travel in July gives lower prices but also the quietest crowds. For lower prices and smaller crowds choose July or September; for peak-season atmosphere aim for May or November when activity and events are strongest.
| Month | Demand Level | Typical Price |
|---|---|---|
| January | About average | AUD 54 |
| February | Busier than usual | AUD 58 |
| March | Busier than usual | AUD 45 |
| April | Peak demand | AUD 69 |
| May | Peak demand | AUD 73 |
| June | Quieter than usual | AUD 118 |
| July | Very quiet | AUD 37 |
| August | Quieter than usual | AUD 78 |
| September | Very quiet | AUD 72 |
| October | About average | AUD 108 |
| November | Busier than usual | AUD 127 |
| December | Busier than usual | AUD 45 |
Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.
Tips for travellers from Australia
Most travellers here book close to travel time: you’ll typically book experiences about 2 days ahead, while the earliest planners book around one week out, according to Klook booking data. That means you can be flexible and often find options a day or two before, but in May and November — the busier, peak months — locking in favourites earlier is sensible. Use Klook to reserve water activities and popular events a few days ahead when travelling in peak months, and feel free to book last-minute in quieter months when availability is higher.
