Salak Phet
Koh Chang island has two very different parts. Most of it is where most tourists meet people from around the world, and the other, is the western area, especially the southernmost part, with is little tourism and people live as they always have, dedicated to agriculture, fisheries and livestock and where everything is more natural. The area on the southern tip is called Salak Phet and is one of the most peaceful and wonderful places that you can imagine. Here it seems that time has stood still, you forget that you went to visit an island resort in Thailand, because it seems anything but that, because people just live in this part, it is a source of calm.
Everything is full of nature, the few houses that there are very humble and mixed in with the vegetation in perfect harmony, it's beautiful. People living in this area are dedicated mainly to fishing, but also have small gardens near their homes where they cultivate some crops. In this area there are however two small charming resorts which mainly consist of individual cottages made of wood. It really is a magical place, perfect to relax and enjoy nature, the sea and total tranquility.
