Trang is one of Thailand's undiscovered hideaways. Secluded beaches,
tropical islands, clear water and towering cliffs.
Quiet and unassuming, Trang, like the provinces of Krabi and Phang
Nga, has a stunning coastline hiding some of Thailand's finest white
sand beaches and dozens of unexplored and uninhabited islands.
In the interior, lagoons, forest, waterfalls and hidden caves alternate
with rolling sweeps of leafy rubber plantations in an agriculturally
rich landscape.
Why go to Trang?
Trang's white sand beaches and idyllic islands offer peace, tranquility
and a place to relax without the intrusion of mass tourism. Caves,
waterfalls, hot springs and lakes provide a perfect venue for adventure
and nature lovers. It's rural Thailand with good roads, comfortable
low-key hotels and friendly locals.

Located about three hours drive from Phuket and 828 kilometres
from Bangkok, Trang's tourist industry in still in its infancy;
despite a flurry of new roads making the province more accessible
over the last few years.
A healthy local economy based on rubber, tin mining and seafood
has prevented mass tourist development While annual events like
the Trang Underwater Wedding Ceremony, held on Valentine's Day,
have raised the profile of Trang, the province still remains unspoilt.
