Koh Chang is my favourite place in Thailand. Not too many tourists and they are generally not riff raff tourists. I stay around White Sands because I like the long beach to walk on and teh amount of restaurants to eat at. I also like the night market and often pick up food there and take it back to hotel room. Then I usually hire a motorbike for a couple of days. One day doing the West side and the other day doing the East side.
great to see you Eddy keeping it real. Real boots on the ground and not like the clowns in Pattaya saying its all sunshine and buttercups..... Keep it real, travel hard and get some cool beer to relax
@@Steviemaast so you're not actually over there and calling poeple over there who are actually having a good time clowns. Well done, you embarassed yourself. Funny how people like you always have to bring other vloggers in to it then you'll wonder why you'll geet beef when you're over
@@ant2312 So you know the 2 idiots I refer to as clowns? for saying it's all amazing, and Dr Prick with his erroneous ideas. Eddy is a no BS guy who is telling us how it really is. Ant I assume your one of the simps hanging on every word thats come out of Soi 7, while in your mum's basement.
Wow. That beach looks fantastic. The whole place looks like somewhere to have a really chilled tropical break. The thing with Thailand is there is so much variety... and winter is better than summer!
Hi Eddie, here in Ohio very cold snowy, and I been very sick. I see this tropical island you got me drooling. A walking street that's compact with more bars than you can make it too, and a sunny beautiful beach for the day. It's heaven. Thanks Eddie for bringing it to me. All the best
i saw on live streams that youtubers The Naked Guru In Thailand and Thairish Times have also arrived on koh chang...any chance of a colab..would be great to see Thairish Times do an interview with you, he has some great interviews on his channel.
Nice one Eddy! I've not been there but the next time I'm over🤞it's on the list... Thanks for showing it to us. Cheers mate, and I know that little mischievous smile of yours... You're having some fun!
I stayed at Kae Bae for a couple of weeks just before Aunt Iris came along. I stayed at The Mae Pen Rai hotel (you walked past it at 06:19) and went to Walking Street a couple of times and in all honesty it was disappointing to say the least, most bars were closed and the few that were open only had a few customers. I really got the impression at the time that Kai Bae was in decline and that the type of visitor had changed from western farang type travellers to Russian families and Chinese tour bus types. The bars catering for western tourists were really not doing well and many weren't even opening. Remember that this was before the pandemic.
Remember, before the Aunt Iris the big concern was the exchange rate and we were getting less for our money. At least it's a better rate now. Thanks for your info
Coincidentally, my Russian neighbours are on their 2nd Thailand trip in 8 months. What is it with Russians and Thailand ? Turkey I can understand ( close by, and historic links ), but Thailand ?
I just left this area a couple of days ago.Most of it has reopened but the Farangs haven’t returned to the extent they have previously.But it’s headed in the right direction.
Hi edd the weather where i am in the uk is 3 degrees with frost and mist in the morning and i have never been to that part of the island where you are but after watching your vd i do plan on going there as for a quiet beach well thats a + no overcrowding you and other you tubers do a great service showing other parts of thailand you might not think about visting so thanks for sharing and great stuff as always look forward to the next vd
Remember Kai bay 15 years ago loved it lonely beach was a bit to quiet and white sands too touristy it was the perfect spot and lots of people missed it going through brilliant vid Ed brought back memories thanks 🤪👍
Stayed there few times last time in Feb 2020 great place was jumping back then great buzz and cool vibes looks a bit worst for wear at the min hopefullywill bounceback soon 🤞. .defo get bike and drive down past ferry ⛴ port alone coast it beautiful and sunset in the rasta view bar is 👌 njoy Eddie great work 👍
Great video Eddie , freezing cold and miserable here ,Koh Chang is a great place but 4 weeks before i get there , hopefully a few more places open by then
Yes, I stayed in Kai Bae in July 2020 for a week. Quiet villa called Filou Villa, private pool, all styles of restaurants ,7-11, Lotus Express. I was a km from the main road down a well- shaded soi. Two minutes from a small elephant refuge.
Finally something nice about Thailand I seen a few vloggers moaning about your opinion of pattaya I'm glad you told the truth cause if you never and I came to what it is I'd be pissed off thanks for your honesty keep going
I didn't see other vloggers 'moaning' about Eddie, now now, stop trying to stir the pot, what I saw were comments by people on Eddie's vids moaning about other vloggers being positive
Hey Eddie great video of my favorite place in Thailand, Ko Chang. Eddie there are some great smaller islands very close to Ko Chang and a must see in my opinion. You can just do a day trip on a boat to Ko Wai , Ko Klum with snokelling at both of the islands and of course lunch and cold beers are served on board or venture a bit further on to Ko Mak and Ko Kood of which both have accomadation if you want to stay overnight..keep on enjoying mate and the very best to you. ps Thanks for the great videos
Eddie that Boob 2 Bar line was the best of the trip so far! I laughed louder than I thought I would while watching one of your more recent videos mate...lol. Great to see Kai Bae is agreeing with you. Looks like a very laid back place. The kind of joint I want to retire to. Great report mate. Good on you Eddie!
Yes Eddie i visited there November 2019 and it was pretty quiet all the bars actually, but a lovely area to be and nice beach. Better then white sands you are right! Keep travelling. Im enjoying Câmbodia! Cheers.
First time I went to Koh Chang was in 1993, power use to go off at 10 pm, no bars no construction just huts on the beach and big bag of weed. enjoy eddie
a nice video Eddie and your much better off their in thailand has the weather here in England is very cold im hoping to get back to pattaya very soon myself keep smiling buddy.
Good on you Eddie for supporting the place. They need the tourists dollars. Your are our pioneer. Much respect man. Cheers from Australia. Edit - and great video thank you.
Cleveland ohio usa its dam cold -2 below and snow! July can't come quick enough and off to the Philippines and maybe a side trip to Thailand we hope! Safe travels dude!
Thanks Eddie, usually drive through Kai Bae when stopping at White Sands or Lonely Beach, always wondered what it was like and have never seen the beach. Cheers!
Visited Kai Bae off season back in 2015 . Had a good vibe , busy enough. Heard you saying how hot it is atm ,as a matter of interest December is generally Thailand's coolest month😅
Love kai Bae, get yourself a Beech hut Eddie , great for bringing back the crumpet and relaxing with a Beer on your own front porch of an evening , all the best Eddie, your content is the best
Sawadee (again). Yep, been there done that & it was good. Hope to go back in a few months time on motorbike so really appreciate your vid, thanks mate!!!
steady love the smile on ya dial mate,watch out the Kai Bae barowners don't sign you up as their frontman if the Koh Ghang tourist board don't get first. you look and sound very happy mate--great to see
Eddy what are doing about your visa extension. As I understand it if you came in on a 30 day extension you could first get another 15 or 30 day extension on that then you could get a 60 day Iris extension after that but only up to the 25th of this month & I don’t know if they extended that. Also if you want an extension you can’t do it on Koh Chang & for Trat province you have to go the immigration office in Leam Ngop. I am sure others are up to date in this & can advise here. I put a link below of a couple who did there 60 day Iris extension yesterday in Bangkok & go through it all.
That walking street areas reminds of little places like Nong Khai, up north in Thailand , where you find little streets with great bars. Some of the best places are hidden away and where you'll have many a great night.
Edward Looks like Kho Chang was a pretty raunchy place pre Pandemic. I'd be interested in visting that island in a year's time when hopefully the dust has settled and tourists are treated like tourists again rather than lab rats. There's a guy in Patong called bugeater38 who films night life and seems welcomed by the girls working in Bangla road. Wonder how he does it. You are looking so much more relaxed than when you were in the UK.
Koh Chang wasn't really a raunchy place ( a bit near White Sands). It was more the place you would take your GFE (Girl Friend Experience) for a short holiday and chill out with her.
While you are there go to Koh mak it is stunning and quiet.Especially know well worth a visit if you have not been before.You can walk around the island on the beach in about an hour.
I've been there in January, in a bungalow right next to the 7/11. I went to the See the Sea Bar a few times for sunset, that beach is beautiful. Kai Bae is just awesome. Cheers from Germany!
It must have been 3/4 years ago that I visited KC, and i stayed for some extra days, white sands beach was were i stayed but traveled all around the island, west coast is the go to part of KC, but east coast has a few nice resorts you can dine at even though your not staying there, i stopped for lunch at a newly opened cafe between white sands and kai bae but looking at the state of play at moment i bet they have closed down now,.anyway lets see some nightime videos eddie, or is it as dead at night as it is in the day ? cheers eddie ,.
Not surprised you decided to extend your stay there Eddie… that beach looks great, I could easily lose a few weeks there. That’s the beauty of longer term travel, you can just decide to stay longer when you find a place that chimes with you.
Wow, mountains in Thailand. I guess you missed the mountains around the "knock shop by the beach". Maybe you need to get away from the bars and open your eyes.
Great to see you,ve enjoyed Kai Bae Eddy. Funny play on words you gave about having a couple of jugs in that boob bar. 😂😂. We also don’t wear our face masks so much since we,ve been in koh Kood as more locals don’t wear them either here than in the bigger mainland towns. Anyway. Quiet, dead or just a little busy, EVERYWHERE sure beats being in UK right now in January. We LOVE live music venues and are gutted to read that they will continue to be outlawed for foreseeable. Anyway, loveing Thailand like you are. Great vlog as always. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
My hubster and I watch your travels and appreciate your honesty. We do miss our winter Thailand hols due to the current situation but watching you and other bloggers having a nice time is good to see but I am going nowhere that mandates mask wearing in that heat! You’re a funny guy and I love your accent. Booked Pattaya for 6 weeks in January 2023 only if the authorities get their act together. Enjoy your fun Ed x
Looks great. I love a bit of Koh Chang. Have you hired a motorbike yet? Maybe have a ride to Bing Bang Bong where the cruise ship is plotted up. It’s another beautiful place.
Lol, It’s called Bang Bao beach, best area on the island for a beautiful beach, sunsets and relaxing. Right down in the south of the island, try not to miss it Eddie. I’ve got a quick vlog of it on my channel 😎
@@roygoad2870 I new it was something like that. I remember swimming in the warm sea and it felt like I was in paradise. At the same time everyone back home was hiding under their beds and wiping their arses on tortillas. (March 2020).
I was last there around 2010 .Stayed at Kai Bae Hut ,where all the boats were parked in your video.Bungalow right on the beach .Another place i stayed was La Luna on the main strip .Kai Bae seems to have expanded a lot since then from your blog .Back then it was very laid back but had a few lively bars .One German owned place was good for cheap meals /drinks and they showed a movie each night on a big screen out back .Another place Thai family owned had live music every night in their sea food restaurant .Around the area you pointed to the Eiffel tower were a few small lady bars . When i hopefully return to Thailand next January i definitely have Koh Chang on my list .....PS ,although i last visited around 2010 ,i had made several visits each year to Chang from 2003 to 2010 .I lived down the road in Jomtien /Pattaya at the time .Each year i went to the Island it seemed to be getting quieter and quieter with less Westerners ,which backs up what another person ( Wojamacolit ) commented here .
Cheers for vid steadwood...booked a week on island ....and extended another 3 days as was that good in 2019....looked at a few property prices on island .....i need to ramp up retirement savings🤣
Stayed in Kaibae twice,first time xmas 2005,stayed in what was little more than sheds with bamboo leaf roofs,but comfortable and only 200 baht.Went back, in 2017 ,and stayed in another place,a bit more upmarket,very nice,sea is very shallow can nearly walk out to that island offshore but yeah very nice, some good bars .
Koh chang is the 2nd largest island in Thailand... but I find it not the easiest ov islands to explore... you really do need to go out there and find it for yourself... I feel I've neva really got to grips wiv koh chang neva really found any nice beaches... another trip to explore it again I feel... like you say eddy 4th time there and youve just found kai bae area ... keep you great videos steady eddy
Koh Chang is my favourite place in Thailand.
Not too many tourists and they are generally not riff raff tourists.
I stay around White Sands because I like the long beach to walk on and teh amount of restaurants to eat at.

You can always tell when Eddie has been able to "release his tensions" , 😜😜👏👏🎉🎉😎😎😂😂
Ed great review thank you , keep them rolling ...
Eddie lets hope we reach an endemic this year so travelling will get back to normal🙏 keep the videos coming mate👌 Damien
Cheers
Great show Eddie
great to see you Eddy keeping it real. Real boots on the ground and not like the clowns in Pattaya saying its all sunshine and buttercups.....
Keep it real, travel hard and get some cool beer to relax
Just one mans opinon..get out there & do it done yourself.
@@johnnovegas8602 I am traveling now, but avoiding Thai till Oct. Enjoy your basement life.
@@Steviemaast yeah, basement...just got back to uk...3 tours since oct..
@@Steviemaast so you're not actually over there and calling poeple over there who are actually having a good time clowns. Well done, you embarassed yourself. Funny how people like you always have to bring other vloggers in to it then you'll wonder why you'll geet beef when you're over

Heading out December for month, will be going Koh Chang
Good for you. I think Koh Chang will be much livelier now the pandemic is over.
Look like your having a good time. Very good.
Looks great Ed nice and quiet…perfect
Have a great time 🍹🍺🍸🍾🍷
i saw on live streams that youtubers The Naked Guru In Thailand and Thairish Times have also arrived on koh chang...any chance of a colab..would be great to see Thairish Times do an interview with you, he has some great interviews on his channel.
It's 3 36 in London and I would love to be where you are now going back in March???? Great video enjoy
Heading here for a week, little bit of rest and recuperation after all the festivities, hope you are well Eddie ✌️
Nice one Eddy! I've not been there but the next time I'm over🤞it's on the list... Thanks for showing it to us. Cheers mate, and I know that little mischievous smile of yours... You're having some fun!
Good to hear from you.
Hi Ed nice see you back at the blogging, I almost feel like I'm there myself thank you

I just left this area a couple of days ago.Most of it has reopened but the Farangs haven’t returned to the extent they have previously.But it’s headed in the right direction.
Should be better peak season. Cheers.
very nice (footage) and to re.see the place (!) its been a long time since ... thank you
Is the gym in white beach open ? Has the bars opened (little Pattaya ?)

Hi Eddie ... UK weather shite 0-3 degrees lol,enjoy your trip fella and thanks for uploading
Visited Kai Bae off season back in 2015 . Had a good vibe , busy enough.
Heard you saying how hot it is atm ,as a matter of interest December is generally Thailand's coolest month😅
850 baht one way on mini van ? With other passengers as car is normally 3200 baht
Thanks Ed, a place with adding to the list. Would love to see how it looks at night!
Very dark 😩😩
show us at night how is the vibe, now is desert
Love kai Bae, get yourself a Beech hut Eddie , great for bringing back the crumpet and relaxing with a Beer on your own front porch of an evening , all the best Eddie, your content is the best
Thankyou, Sean.

A great video Steady. Have not been since March 2020 booked for June hope they drop the day 5 test and let the bars / clubs finally open till late.
Let's hope for the best. Good to hear from you mate
Name of that music at the start? Good choice
Perfect Muse. Black Goldie.

@John The Accountant yeah, if you took her there #2 hole became available
I said the same about Thai Bound Peter. Him and Eddie seemed more relaxed and younger looking after just a few days in Thailand. I could use that.
While you are there go to Koh mak it is stunning and quiet.Especially know well worth a visit if you have not been before.You can walk around the island on the beach in about an hour.
a beautiful place to take a stroll Cheers Eddy
Another stunning vlog by top bloke
Thank you kindly
Good man Eddie , what ever the feel is make the most of it and enjoy to the max , thanks pal 👍
Thanks, mate.
I've been there in January, in a bungalow right next to the 7/11. I went to the See the Sea Bar a few times for sunset, that beach is beautiful. Kai Bae is just awesome.

It's one place in Thailand I've not been but I hope to visit in April I don't mind being away from the crowds take care steady
Cheers mate
Wow, mountains in Thailand. I guess you missed the mountains around the "knock shop by the beach". Maybe you need to get away from the bars and open your eyes.
Like the editing! Well done sir.
looks alright there fella i'd never heard of the place and i'v been to the island before

Take a wander down to the White Sands area for us - it's supposed to be the best part of the island
It's not my favourite, but I'll take a look.
Are you going to rent a moto and explore the island?
No, it's not my thing

Got the old tunes on, I know your in the groove Eddie, enjoy the 🌞 and explore the culture 😎
Stayed in Kaibae twice,first time xmas 2005,stayed in what was little more than sheds with bamboo leaf roofs,but comfortable and only 200 baht.Went back, in 2017 ,and stayed in another place,a bit more upmarket,very nice,sea is very shallow can nearly walk out to that island offshore but yeah very nice, some good bars .
Thanks for your info
@@STEADY599 no worries, Kaibae beats white sands anyday for me.When it's normal, great.
Koh chang is the 2nd largest island in Thailand... but I find it not the easiest ov islands to explore... you really do need to go out there and find it for yourself... I feel I've neva really got to grips wiv koh chang neva really found any nice beaches... another trip to explore it again I feel... like you say eddy 4th time there and youve just found kai bae area ... keep you great videos steady eddy
Thanks mate
