Koh Chan & Koh Thai Thri | 3 Days 2 Nights from Bangkok

This Journey takes you from Bangkok to discover Ao Noi, Ao Prachuap and Ao Manao, connecting local coastal life, the history of Wing 5 and the views that give the “Town of Three Bays” its distinctive character.

Beyond the shore, explore the marine world around Koh Chan and Koh Thai Thri within Hat Wanakon National Park.

Ao Noi: A Quiet Introduction to the Three Bays

Ao Noi is a small bay north of Prachuap Khiri Khan town, framed by limestone hills and a fishing community whose daily life follows a gentle rhythm. Fishing boats, waterfront homes and mountains rising behind the shore reveal a peaceful, natural side of Prachuap, with the quiet character of a working coastal village.

Along the bay stands Wat Ao Noi, distinguished by its golden teak ordination hall and intricate carvings that reflect the skill of Thai craftsmen. Here, temple artistry, a tranquil seaside setting and elevated views across the bay come together—a graceful first stop in your discovery of the Town of Three Bays.

Ao Prachuap & Saran Withi Pier: The Town Beside the Sea

Ao Prachuap & Saran Withi Pier: The Town Beside the Sea

Ao Prachuap stretches along the town’s waterfront, framed by limestone hills on either side, with Khao Chong Krachok forming a distinctive part of the landscape. The bay remains closely connected to local life, offering a peaceful setting for a waterfront stroll, fresh sea breezes and an unhurried introduction to the Town of Three Bays.

Saran Withi Pier extends from the shore into the bay, opening broad views of the sea, surrounding hills and Prachuap Khiri Khan’s skyline. A walk to its far end brings you closer to the sea breeze and reveals the waterfront from a fresh perspective. In the soft light of morning or late afternoon, the town’s quiet coastal charm is especially inviting.

Wing 5 and Ao Manao

Wing 5 and Ao Manao bring the beauty of the coast together with a significant chapter in Thailand’s history. On 8 December 1941, Japanese forces landed at Ao Manao, where Thai airmen and their families fought bravely to defend their homeland. The memorials and historic sites within Wing 5 offer a deeper connection to these events, allowing visitors to reflect on the courage of those who stood their ground.

After exploring this history, discover the quieter side of Ao Manao. Its curved beach opens onto calm waters, with Khao Lom Muak and limestone mountains forming a striking backdrop. A visit here offers both peaceful coastal scenery and a moment of respect for those who once defended this very shore.

Koh Chan and Koh Thai Thri

Koh Chan and Koh Thai Thri are small islands under the care of Hat Wanakon National Park, with natural sandy beaches, clear waters, and snorkeling sites a short boat journey from the coast. When sea conditions are favourable, sunlight reaches beneath the surface, revealing coral formations and schools of fish moving through the water below.

Beneath the surface, marine life unfolds in remarkable detail—from corals of varied shapes and colourful reef fish to tiny creatures sharing this natural ecosystem. Snorkeling here offers a peaceful connection with the sea, while controlled visitor numbers and activity times help preserve the islands’ marine environment for years to come.

King Mongkut Science Park at Waghor

King Mongkut Science Park at Waghor stands on the historic site where King Mongkut observed the total solar eclipse on 18 August 1868, having accurately calculated its occurrence. Today, the park is a learning centre for astronomy, science, nature, and the environment, connecting this important moment in Thailand’s history with modern knowledge and discovery.

Within the park, Waghor Aquarium introduces ecosystems ranging from freshwater habitats and coastal waters to the world beneath the sea. Its exhibits and underwater tunnel offer close encounters with aquatic life. After snorkeling at Koh Chan and Koh Thai Si, a visit here deepens your understanding of corals, marine creatures, and the relationships that sustain their ecosystems, bringing greater appreciation for the sea and the importance of its conservation.

Today, the park is a learning centre for astronomy, science, nature, and the environment, connecting this important moment

Hat Wanakon National Park

Hat Wanakon National Park has a long stretch of beach shaded by casuarina trees and coastal woodland. Gentle sea breezes, open waters, and peaceful surroundings invite you to stroll along the shore, rest beneath the trees, or spend a quiet moment with nature, away from the bustle of larger beach destinations.

Nature trails within the park introduce you to coastal plants, ecosystems, and the creatures that live between the forest and the sea. A visit to Hat Wanakon offers more than beautiful beach scenery—it is an opportunity to rest your eyes on green surroundings, breathe fresh sea air, and discover the natural beauty of Prachuap Khiri Khan at a relaxed pace.

Nishaville Resort

Nishaville Resort sits beside Huai Yang Beach in a peaceful, private setting. Sea views, leafy gardens, a swimming pool, and a beach for morning or evening walks create a welcoming place to unwind after exploring the three bays of Prachuap Khiri Khan and snorkeling at Koh Chan and Koh Thai Si.

For this Journey, you will stay in a spacious Deluxe Seaview Suite, with views of the sea from your room. The resort’s location keeps travel time to Hat Wanakon National Park short, allowing more time to rest each day and enjoy the coastal atmosphere long after the day’s activities have ended.
