About Koh Rang
Koh Rang is the centerpiece of the Koh Rang Marine National Park, east of Koh Chang. As a protected marine park, the reefs are healthier and more biodiverse than the unprotected sites near Koh Chang. Hawksbill and green turtles are regularly seen, and the visibility is notably better. Multiple dive and snorkel sites ring the island.
