Koh Khram

Koh Khram is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful and unspoiled islands in the Pattaya region. Surrounded by countless bays, coves, and hidden inlets, this large and striking island offers a truly magical cruising experience. As part of the Thai Royal Navy protected zone, Koh Khram remains largely untouched by mass tourism, preserving its natural beauty, crystal waters, and peaceful atmosphere.

Koh Khram Yai is located around 10.5 nautical miles from Ocean Marina. The journey takes approximately 1 hour 3 minutes each way (around 2 hours 6 minutes return). This destination offers clear waters and a more secluded experience, suitable for longer day charters.

The island is also an important sea turtle conservation area, and during certain times of the year access to the island is restricted to protect the nesting turtles. This strict protection ensures that Koh Khram retains its pristine condition — a rare luxury in today’s world. When conditions allow access, guests are rewarded with deserted, powdery-white beaches, soft sand underfoot, and a sense of complete privacy that feels worlds away from the city.

Cruising around Koh Khram reveals a dramatic and diverse landscape. Almost every stretch of coastline features postcard-perfect beaches, while the southern end of the island is marked by impressive limestone cliffs and drop-offs, reminiscent of the iconic scenery of Phang Nga Bay in Phuket. These towering formations rising from turquoise waters create breathtaking views from the deck of your yacht and make the journey around the island just as memorable as the destination itself.

The waters surrounding Koh Khram — and the narrow channel between it and its sister island Koh Khram Noi, located just a few hundred meters to the north — are exceptionally clear and rich in marine life. This area is home to vibrant coral reefs and a wide variety of tropical fish, offering exquisite snorkeling and excellent fishing opportunities. Whether drifting above the reef with a snorkel mask or casting a line from the yacht, the marine environment here delivers an unforgettable experience.

Koh Khram Noi lies about 9 nautical miles from Ocean Marina. The cruise takes around 54 minutes each way (approximately 1 hour 48 minutes return). This destination offers a peaceful and scenic escape, perfect for half-day or longer charters.

Nearby, the small Monkey Island provides a charming and entertaining stop. Its native monkeys often gather along the rocky shoreline, eagerly greeting visiting boats and adding a playful moment to your cruise. Just opposite Koh Khram lies Sai Kaew Navy Beach, an ideal location to pause for lunch, enjoy calm swimming waters, or explore the coastline by sea kayak before continuing your journey.

With its protected status, dramatic scenery, untouched beaches, and thriving marine ecosystem, Koh Khram offers a rare combination of natural beauty and exclusivity. It is a destination that consistently leaves a lasting impression on our guests — a place where nature, tranquility, and adventure blend seamlessly into one unforgettable yacht charter experience.
