Green Tourism in Thailand

The Camp Resort on Thung Nang Dam Island is a unique tent resort in the south of Thailand. The tents are set up 5 metres from the sandy beach under huge casuarina trees. These tents are true 3-star tents with a sleeping room and a separate sitting room in front, from where there is a fantastic view of the sandy beach, the Andaman Sea and Koh Ra Island further to the left. The rooms are well equipped with mats on the floor, very comfortable thick mattresses, some nice and cozy furnishings and a good fan. The doors consist of zipped mosquito screens. The sitting room is very comfortable and nice to look at.
Sanitary rooms are 40 meters back behind the restaurant building. Food is served under a large roof from natural material. This food is a reason already to come to The Camp Resort. The dinners are a sensation in itself: seafood in quantities that nobody is able to finish, in a quality that could compete with any famous seafood restaurant in the south, served with a warmth of character that makes your heart to really enjoy the meal.
All guests to whom we spoke were full of praise for this dinner, but also for the breakfast and the slightly smaller lunch.
Listening to all this praise (that we fully share from our own experience) makes us almost forget the other facilities that the resort has to offer. These are swimming in the sea, walking along an absolutely lonely beach, collecting big seashells, walking through the pristine nature of the island, riding mountain bikes to the farthest corners, kayaking in the sea, and taking a guided boat trip around the island visiting fish and crab farms.
In the package the transfer from Khuraburi bus station to the island and back is included.
In a two day package a trip to the Surin Islands can be arranged at self cost.
Diving and snorkeling in the north of Koh Ra is possible but not recommended as the currents tend to be too strong creating a less than acceptable visibility.

Sawasdee Lagoon liegt 4,4 km vom H4 entfernt in ländlicher Umgebung. Die einzigartige Idee des Besitzers ist es, einen preiswerten Campingplatz mit vielen Freizeitangeboten und Bewirtung anzubieten. Die 12 Zelte "Ing-Nam" stehen am Ufer des recht grossen Sees aufgereiht unter einem Schattendach aus Palmblättern. Weitere Zelte "Kiang-Daow" stehen weiter hinten sehr ruhig unter Kasuarinen. Die Zelte sind gut eingerichtet mit Betten, Nachttisch, Bodenmatten, Lampe und Steckdosen. Auch 3 schöne Zimmer stehen fuer Gäste zur Verfügung, die komfortabler nächtigen wollen. Neben Fahrrädern und Paddelbooten gibt es auch Ballspiele, einen originalen Tischfussballkasten und echte Thai-Massage. Im Restaurant wird original lokale Kost serviert wie man sie als Tourist sonst kaum bekommt.
Etwas ganz Besonderes sind die Toiletten des Platzes, die vom Gesundheitsministerium als "Best public Toilets 2009" ausgezeichnet wurden. Sie sind wirklich die schönsten, die wir je in Thailand gesehen haben. Auch eine geräumige Toilette für Behinderte steht zur Verfügung.
Die Preise von 590 bzw. 790 Baht pro Person verstehen sich inklusive Abendessen, Frühstück und freier Nutzung aller Freizeiteinrichtungen.
