Eastern Thailand contains 7 provinces, situated to
the south of Isan and east of the Central Thailand,
between Bangkok and Cambodia.
This region of Thailand is particularly popular with
visitors who wish to enjoy all the natural beauty
and golden beaches of Southern Thailand whilst avoiding
the crowds.
For many, the tourist destination of Pattaya provides
an interesting diversion, whilst others head straight
to the beautiful island of Koh Samet to enjoy all
the benefits of an island holiday with less of the
hassles.
The large island of Koh Chang is a great place to
spend a few days and there are many areas of natural
beauty located on the island as well as several smaller
islands close by. This is a great place to go snorkeling
and diving as there is plenty of pristine coral and
colourful fish to see.
The town of Si Racha is well known for its deliciously
spicy sauce and seafood, and while there visitors
can visit the Sri Racha Tiger Zoo for the opportunity
to cuddle the tiny tiger cubs.
For travelers who really want to get away from it
all, the peaceful island of Koh Si Chang makes a great
destination as it is virtually ignored by tourists.
Although the region is easily reachable by bus, there
is are also small airports at U-Tapao and Trat.
