Klong Son Bay (Aow Khlong Son) or Khlong Son Bay, is located at the north-east end of Ko Chang. It is approximately 1.5 kilometres wide, at the southern part scarcely 2 kilometres long and at the northern section easily 3 kilometres.
Two small islands are located at each end of Klong Son Bay - Ko Chang Noi in the northwest and Ko Mapring in the southwest.

There are 2 beaches in Klong Son Bay, the long Chang Noi Beach that extends over the whole bay and the small Halfmoon Beach that faces the mainland. In the north the two beaches are just about 100 metres away from each other.
In the south a river splits the Chang Noi Beach into two parts.

At low tide the sea draws far back as at almost all other beaches on Ko Chang. As there are almost no stones in the sand getting into the water is quite easy.

The village Baan Klong Son is sprawled across a large area.
The original section, located directly on the bay, is partly built on stakes in the sea and is mainly inhabited by fishermen.
The newer part of the village is situated by the road but more and more houses are built along the river into the beautiful valley in the southeast.
Beside Wat Klong Son (temple) and a school, there is also a clinic in the village.

Arrival & Departure:
Baan Klong Son can be reached from the piers in approximately 15 minutes by taxi. If you have advanced bookings you should tell the taxi driver the name of the bungalow resort or the hotel, otherwise you can get the driver to stop anywhere you want by knocking on the car-body.

The departure times of the taxis to Dan-Kao-Pier are subject to seasonal change, so check in advance at your resort or in a travel agency.
Because all taxis that operate on the west coast must passBaan Klong Son on their way to the piers, you shouldn´t have to wait for a long time at the road. As long as there is space available, the drivers will gladly stop to pick you up.

Accommodation is available in the village and around the bay. All 360° virtual reality panoramas and photographs from February 2002 or October 2004.
