Attention beach lovers! Thailand’s picturesque Koh Kradan island has been named the best beach in the world by UK website World Beach Guide in their ‘Top 100 Beaches on Earth 2023’ list. This unspoiled gem, situated off the coast of Thailand’s Trang province, offers a serene experience perfect for those looking to escape the crowds. And the best part? Four other Thai beaches also ranked within the top 100!
Koh Kradan is considered the most scenic among the 40 Trang Islands located off the Andaman Coast of Thailand. Unlike the more touristy and bustling destinations such as Koh Phi Phi or Phuket, this island paradise comes without the hustle and bustle, making it the perfect escape for relaxation and tranquility.
The island is home to a few small resorts, a minimart, and the rest is part of the gorgeous Hat Chao Mai National Park. World Beach Guide couldn’t help but praise Koh Kradan for its unspoiled natural beauty, crystal-clear waters, soft sand, and peaceful atmosphere. Sounds like heaven, right?
Paradise Beach, the island’s main beach, features 1.5 kilometers of white sand and dreamy turquoise waters. And if you venture to the west side of the island, you’ll discover a hidden gem called Sunset Beach, accessible via a charming forest path.
But Koh Kradan isn’t just about lazing around on the beach – it’s a snorkeler’s paradise too! The warm, sheltered waters of the Andaman Sea offer crystal-clear conditions for snorkeling. However, they also mentioned that the water can be quite shallow during low tide, requiring some wading before reaching deeper waters suitable for swimming.
Government Spokesperson Anucha Burapachaisri announced that five Thai beaches were featured on World Beach Guide’s Top 100 list, expressing gratitude to the private and government sectors involved in the tourism industry and the Thai people for their role in preserving these natural treasures.
So, when you’re planning your next beach getaway, don’t forget to add Thailand to your list. With its stunning natural wonders and five of its beaches in the World Beach Guide’s Top 100, the Land of Smiles is ready to sweep you off your feet!
