This island has only recently been developed as a tourist destination in the Phang Nga province just off the coast from Takua Pa.
Its little beach is the main attraction: white sand for sunbathing, rocks for picnics, trees for shade. A sandy shelf means that the sea is shallow for some way out perfect for kids. There is not too much else to do, other than trek through the rainforest to a waterfall, stroll down a couple of mangrove walks or visit the ruins of a 13th-century village.
Where to stay Koh Kho Khao Resort
(kkkresort.com) has great gardens and a pool with a garish mushroom fountain in the middle. It costs about £103 per night for a family room in peak seasons.
How to get there It is an hour and a half by road from Phuket airport to Takua Pa, then a five-minute hop by ferry from Baan Nam Kem pier.
