Ko Hong (เกาะห้อง): Thailand’s Secret Half-Moon Paradise

Tucked away in the Than Bok Khorani National Park, Ko Hong (also called Ko Lao Bi Le) is a breathtaking island that belongs on every traveler’s bucket list. With its pristine half-moon bay, powdery white sand, and crystal-clear indigo waters, this hidden gem offers a slice of paradise far from the crowds of more famous Thai islands.

Why Ko Hong is Special

  • Colorful parrotfish

  • Clownfish hiding in anemones

  • Occasional blacktip reef sharks
