Best deals in Kai Bae!

Kai Bae is located on the west coast, between Klong Prao and Lonely Beach. This is a small village with a narrow main road in the middle of shops, restaurants, pubs and stalls.

There are lots of restaurants, bars, few supermarkets, banks, ATM, coffee shops, bakeries, drugstores, hairdresser, a wine gallery, diving centers, …. all what you need is there, in the middle of the village.

Kai Bai is known for its viewpoint, on top of the hill, overlooking the sea and the small islands. The mailbox on this viewpoint is even maybe more famous than the viewpoint itself.

The sandy beach, which is very close from the village, is made of 2 parts, the north and the south parts separated by a small estuary river.

During the low season the tides are very low and it’s possible to walk up to Ko Man Nai, the closest island you can see from the south part of the beach.
And if the tide is not low enough, it’s always possible to rent a kayak to explore it. Don’t expect to be like Robinson Crusoe on Koh Man Nai, it attracts lots of other “explorers” who are looking for loneliness and a peaceful tiny beach.

Kai Bae Hut Speed Boat is located between the north and the south beaches and between Nang Nual Beach Resort and Kaibae Hut Resort.
They organise all type of speedboat trips, from a half-day trip in a private boat to “charter” trips to Koh Wai, Koh Mak and Koh Kood.
You can find all the information on their website.

I will not name all the restaurants and places where to eat good food at a reasonable price but there are some that I really recommend.

When you arrive in Kai Bae, coming from Klong Prao, you will see Kai Bae walking street on your left where you can find one of King Tattoo studios, Sir Henry Morgan’s pub and Chef Bill Restaurant.

Arriving in the village you will find Chez David, a Belgian Brasserie which is one of my favourite places in Kai Bae when I want to eat European dishes but also delicious sandwiches, cheese and drink Belgian beers.

Casamarina guesthouse, The Chill Resort and Spa, Awa Resort, The Stage, La Villa Guesthouse, Garden Resort, Sanook Sanang Resort, Sea Breeze Hotel and Paradise Bungalows are some of the good resorts, hotels and guesthouses you can find along the main road.

On the north part of the beach and with a beach front, there are Koh Chang Cliff Beach Resort, Chang Park Resort, The White Knot, Siam Cottage, Gaja Puri Resort and Spa and Coral Resort with the excellent SALT Beach Bistro.

After the small estuary river where small fishermen boats are moored, there is Nang Nual Beach Resort, KB Resort, Kai Bae Beach Resort, Kai Bae Beach Grand Villa, Mam Kai Bae Beach Resort, Porn's Bungalow, Sea View Resort and Siam Bay Resort.

And finally almost every day, in the morning and/or in the evening you can see the young elephants from Kai Bae Elephant Trekking, doing their beach walk with their mahouts.
