A weekend may not seem like enough time to explore Koh Chang, but with the right plan, you can experience the island’s stunning beaches, tropical rainforest, local culture, and relaxed atmosphere in just two days. Whether you’re travelling from Bangkok, Pattaya, or nearby Trat, Koh Chang is an ideal destination for a short escape.
This guide will help you make the most of your weekend while enjoying comfortable accommodation, great food, and unforgettable island experiences.
Day 1 – Arrive and Slow Down
Most visitors arrive via Ao Sapparot Ferry Pier, making the island surprisingly accessible for a weekend getaway.
After checking into your hotel, avoid rushing around. One of the biggest pleasures of Koh Chang is its slower pace.
If you’re staying at Blue Haven Bay Koh Chang, you can settle into your room, take a stroll along the beach, or simply relax by the pool before exploring further.
As the afternoon cools, rent a kayak or paddleboard, enjoy the sea breeze, and take in the peaceful surroundings.
Sunset at The Beach Club
Your first evening should end by the sea.
The Beach Club is one of the most enjoyable places on Koh Chang to watch the sunset while enjoying dinner and cocktails.
Choose from fresh Thai dishes, seafood, international favourites, or simply relax with a drink as the sky changes from blue to shades of orange and pink.
It’s the perfect introduction to island life.
Day 2 – Discover Koh Chang
Wake up early and enjoy breakfast before exploring the island.
Popular places to visit include:
- Klong Plu Waterfall
- White Sand Beach
- Kai Bae Viewpoint
- Local fishing villages
- Small cafés and markets
- Scenic coastal roads
If you enjoy outdoor activities, consider a snorkelling tour or a boat trip to nearby islands.
For travellers who prefer a slower pace, simply exploring different beaches is equally rewarding.
Stay Active or Simply Relax
Back at Blue Haven Bay, you can spend the afternoon enjoying the facilities.
Guests can:
- Swim in the beachfront infinity pool
- Kayak along the coastline
- Try stand-up paddleboarding
- Visit the sauna
