Charcoal Bay Wine & Grill

Up on Koh Tao’s north side, Charcoal Bay Wine & Grill does exactly what the name promises: charcoal-fired plates and a proper glass of wine. It’s a calmer call than Sairee’s party strip, handy if you’re staying in the Koh Tao North Area and want dinner with a grown‑up vibe. Expect smoky, grill‑led dishes built for sharing and a wine list that goes beyond the token house pour, by the glass or bottle. The crowd is dive crews on a night off, couples, and small groups. Come early for a quieter table, stay when the grills hit their stride and the sea breeze does the rest.
