Ko Racha Yai Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 37 photos

Memories for a lifetime

This is one of the best Islands for a couple of lazy days.
The main beach (Batok Bay) is covered of white powder sand and it feels like walking in flower, the water is crystalclear and a very nice place for diving or snorkeling, it has quite good accomodations and a few very nice restaurants directly on the beach.

Check this link: Ban Raya Resort

It is possible that you could meet some celibrity during your stay here! Kings and Princes etc...,L. Di Caprio, Beckhams, Angelina Jolie etc......

Pros and Cons
