Ko
Man
 This
group of three islands in the eastern Gulf of Thailand are
protected as part of the Khao Laem Ya Ko Samet National Marine
Park, but as on Ko Samet this has not prevented development
of tourist resorts on two of the three. One island, Ko Man
Nai, has been set aside as a sanctuary and breeding center
for several species of sea turtles, and does not have accommodations
for overnight stays.
The
other two, Ko Man Klang and Ko Man Nok, have nice isolated
beaches and well preserved coral reefs. The island group lies
about 5 kms offshore from Laem Mae Phim, which is about 30
kms east of Rayong City, and can be reached by boat in about
45 minutes. Resorts on the two islands rent equipment for
snorkeling, sailing, and canoeing.
