[I followed the Information I read in a small post about transportation and it took me to the most breathtaking as it said Bang Bao Beach and I did not stay at the Guest House mentioned, as it was full, but I did manage to find a wonderful lady who booked us in to a juat as good Guest House with the same amazing view for 700 baht a night.

You can contact Miss Pornnumpa, on 085 708 6571 or 086 907 0616 re: Bang Bao Beach, Pier accommodation, facing the Beach.

It is a small beach, we did in deed find two other gay Couples, even though it did not seem to matter with the few people who was there, we were 2 farangs and 2 Thai boys, laughing and playfully having fun, so much so a few of the couples joined in and we all went to a very good Indian Restaurant, with 2 of them, I must say the best I have tasted in Thailand, This gay friendly Beach is at the end of the main Koh Chang road and unless you know where it is, not a lot of people seem to find it, but well worth the journey.

We caught the bus at the Bus Transportation Center of the New Airport, 180 baht to Trat, then went to the Ferry 160 baht return, we hired Motor bikes, where we landed on the ferry, 200 baht a day for automatic start, less for gears, then 600 Baht a night for our Guest House facing the beach, on the pier, it was the most outstanding and wonderful 5 day trip and I can tell you be careful on a motor bike drive slowly, as its hills and dales, but apart from that your just love the trip to this part of Paradise. I did a similar trip to koi Samui and Koh Pangan that cost 20 times this and was just as good, but of course if you go with fun friends, your have a good time any where you go.

The view is as you imagine in thailand, as if you have been washed up on a dessert Island, the pictures dont give it credit, only beach like this is Bang Bao Beach, opposit these Bungalows.

You can also catch a bus to Trat from Airport Bus station to Koi Chang Island Paradise. its breathtaking, Airport Bus 180 baht and 160 for ferry to Island, hire a motor bike and ring 0812850570 or 027439046 for a fabulous 5 star Beach Hut, with your favorite friend or friends in Paradise, you could wish for no more in life.

Dont tell any one, but the Gay Beach is Bang Bao Beach and if you want a luxury beach hut there, from 1600 a night, ring now, above number or 1/3rd cheaper gust houses, behind this place.

Its the best kept secret for only exclusive bathers, so dont spoil it.

Bang Bao Bay is a well protected bay at the southwest end of Koh Chang. The quaint fishing village Baan Bang Bao is built on stakes far out into the bay and has become quite a popular Gay friendly Beach.. Many seafood restaurants offer a rich selection of fresh seafood and small shops sell souvenirs or refreshments.

Bang Bao Bay has lately become a resort and recreation area with bungalows built on selected wonderful scenic sites. The Breathtaking beach at Bang Bao has clear waters with rocks and corals off its shores. A good place to fish, snorkel and swim.
