About Ko Kradan

Ko Kradan is about 10 kilometers off the Trang coast, a narrow island of about 2.4 square kilometers named for its oblong shape. It has white sand and water clear enough to see the coral reef. Most of the island is in Hat Chao Mai National Park, and the rest is privately owned. A 2023 ranking named its beach the best in the world.
