White Sand beach

One of the positives of Koh Chang is this lovely beach with many Hotels/restaurants/bars to suit varying budgets. Massage & weed shops if those are your thing on the adjacent street to the beach, plus 7-11 & provision stores. Mix of clientele, from families to elderly in this area & locals vary in welcoming friendliness, with the best being such as this lovely lady in the video...priceless⭐🫶

This is a great beach as beaches go: classic, soft, white sand that stretches in a long arc against the gently lapping, bathtub-warm waters of the Gulf of Thailand. Unlike a lot of well-frequented beaches, it’s delightfully free of trash and the water seems relatively clean. It’s quieter (and cheaper) up at the less crowded northern end. As you head south, the number of beachfront restaurants and bars increases. But it never seems to get over-crowded despite the entire beach being open to the public. There’s no renting of chairs, no jet skis or parasailing and, perhaps best of all, no touts selling their wares (until sunset at least). There are, however, fire-juggling dinner shows. It’s not a beach for surfers, alas, as there’s seldom a ripple to disturb the calm. But it’s good for kids, paddle-boarders and sea kayakers. Being such a broad and shallow beach means that at low tide you may have to walk a ways to submerge, whereas at high tide there's almost no beach at all. If you’re an ageist, body shaming elitist who judges beaches by the people on them and only tolerates sunbathing next to lithe young adults, the diversity of humans on this beach will undoubtedly disappoint you. Head south for more homogeneity.

We spent 4 days in this main beach of Koh Chang. This beach is a long strip that we used to walk at the sea line, lt is a calm and relaxing walking with many restaurants near by. At the evenings there is a nice sun down and fire show for guests of the restaurants... The main road is short distance away from the beach line and have plenty of restaurants and 7-11 shops.

Most probably the busiest and most crowded beach in Koh Chang. It’s the first beach you’ll come across once you arrive in the island. Very busy during the day and also in the evening due to many restaurants and bar by the beach. The quality of the water is definitely good, you’ll also be able to get a sunbed or sun lounger. Nice for long walks too. During evenings nice atmosphere with fire shows

Very cosy atmosphere, white and shining sand grains, a lot of shows in front of restaurants among all neighbourhood. Fire dancing shows, astonishing level of music volume. You are snowed under island life and fresh food taste and smell. I think you won’t be disappointed visiting this resort island, neither do I.

Overall the beach is ok. The sand is nice, and there are some shaded areas, which is great on hot days. There are also a few beach cafés where you can grab a drink or something to eat. There are also beach sellers walking around offering towels and other items. What bothered me a bit was the cleanliness – it could definitely be better maintained. Overall, it’s a decent spot to spend a few relaxing hours.

We were a little confused about why this was the most recommended beach. Of course like all the beaches on the island in theory it’s beautiful but it was so packed full of older Benidorm style tourists, bars and restaurants. Lots of older “lads trips” of English men and young girls. It really wasn’t our vibe at all we stayed for a coffee walked along the beach and headed south to one of the other beaches. I would personally recommend any beach more highly than this unless that brits abroad vibe thing is what you like.

Beautiful beach to chill for the day. And you can even find shade under a tree and cheap drinks and snacks at the 7-11 close by. Perfect beach day spot.
