Ko Adang
เกาะอาดัง
A large island opposite Koh Lipe, covered in rainforest. From Chado Cliff you can see all of Koh Lipe, and there is also a 'Pirate Waterfall' and fine sand beaches.
Ko Adang is the second-largest island in Tarutao National Marine Park. It lies about 1.5 kilometers across the strait from Koh Lipe, a 5–10 minute ride by long-tail boat. Beside the national park office at the southern tip of the island are fine sand beaches and a campground. From here, a mountain trail takes about 30–40 minutes to reach the Chado Cliff viewpoint, which overlooks Koh Lipe and the surrounding islands and is the island's most classic photo spot. Another path leads to the 'Pirate Waterfall,' which only flows in the rainy season. Visitors must pay the national park entrance fee (about 200 baht for foreigners, subject to the park's current notices). The mountain trail is steep and has no shade, so go early in the morning or late in the afternoon and bring plenty of water.
