Bang Bao is a photogenic village built out into the bay on stilts. There are several small restaurants noted for their fresh seafood. The Bang Bao Bay has been a sanctuary for fishing boats seeking shelter from the monsoon for over a century. It has lately become a resort and recreation area with bungalows built on selected scenic sites, fine seafood restaurants that guarantee fresh daily catches and local shops of souvenirs.
Bang Bao Bay (Aow Bang Bao) is a well protected bay at the southwest end of Koh Chang. It measures about 1 kilometre in width and in length. The quaint fishing village Baan Bang Bao is built on stakes far out into the bay and has become quite a popular attraction. Many seafood restaurants offer a rich selection of fresh seafood and small shops sell souvenirs or refreshments. |
