Lying between Koh Chang and Koh Kood, about 40 kms from the mainland is a group of 9 islands called Moo Koh Mak. Only 4 of these islands namely Koh Mak, Koh Kradad, Koh Kham and Koh Rayang Nok are occupied. Koh Mak, with an area of only 16 square kilometers and a 27 kms coastline, is the third largest island of Koh Chang island group. It has a flat terrain with plenty of coconut and rubber plantations. The main attractions are the long beaches and clear sea waters. Only a few hundred people live there; most of them are related.
