Ko Chang - Day 3: Scooter Day

Today we decided to rent a scooter and explore the island a bit. It is a good thing that I've gotten a few miles under my belt, as the north end of the island has steep and windy roads. Hat Sai Khao is on the northwest side of the island, and we rode clockwise around the island, heading to the southeast corner.

The paved road ended, and the dirt road became steep and windy again as it hugged hills along the coast. Still, we continued on, determined to see where the road led. We eventually wound up at Hat Yao or Long Beach, which had a very rustic bungalow operation called the Tree House Bungalows. We got off our bikes and decided to stay here a while and take in the beach. If you really wanted to get away from it all, this would be the place to go: definitely the closest we've seen so far to the Robinson Crusoe fantasy.

Afterwards, we rode back, had dinner and watched the sunset.
