At the west coast, mangroves, wild orchids and Thai herbs grow. At the east coast, facing Ko Maak, there are 2 small, beautiful, sandy beaches with a flat sandbank where you can – depending to the water level – comfortably sit in the warm crystal-clear sea. The turquoise water with innumerable fish in front of the flat beaches of Ko Kham invites to swim and snorkel.   Ko Kham is the only island of the surroundings where a set of black volcano-rocks is directly embed into the white sandy beach. This and the beautiful beaches, that are situated around the beautiful garden, make Ko Kham a popular spot for the tourist boats coming from Ko Chang. On a small path at the southern beach you can reach a small place where you can watch the beautiful sunsets.     Ko Kham doesn’t have an own spring, so water has to be delivered by boat from Ko Maak. There is also no electricity on the island but the generator is started in the late afternoon. Mobil connection to most of the Thai mobile nets is guaranteed. Arrival to Ko Kham and departure: From November to May there are daily boats starting from Baan Bang Bao (south of Ko Chang) to Ko Kham and back. As the departure times change quite often please ask on Ko Chang (tickets are available in almost all travel-agencies). At 9.30 am, 11 am, 1.30 pm and 4 pm speedboats leave the mainland from the Laem Ngop pier (also called Khrom Luang pier or Tha Khrom Luang). The boats will bring you either directly to Ko Kham or to Ko Mak, where you just have to ask the local Thais who will give you information how to get to Ko Kham easily. It may happen that the boats can’t go when the waves are too high - what rarely happens during the season.   Because Ko Kham was sold beginning of 2008 we don't know if it's still possible to visit this wonderful island.
