Trat Province Sees High Season Surge as Tourists Flock to Islands
The high season in Trat has officially begun, with thousands of tourists traveling to Koh Kood and Koh Mak during the recent three-day holiday.
According to a report by Thai Post, the high season for the coastal province of Trat has commenced, marked by a significant influx of visitors during the recent three-day holiday period. Approximately 3,000 tourists traveled to Koh Kood and Koh Mak, prompting local transport operators to increase their service frequency.
To accommodate the surge in demand, three major boat operators have added extra morning trips using speedboats to ensure travelers reach their destinations efficiently. While Koh Kood and Koh Mak are experiencing high activity, the report notes that conditions on Koh Chang remain normal for this time of year.
For travelers and residents, this surge indicates that the peak tourism season is underway, which may lead to increased demand for accommodation and transport services on the smaller islands. Those planning trips to the region should consider booking transport and lodging in advance to avoid potential delays. It remains to be confirmed how long these additional boat schedules will remain in effect and whether operators will continue to increase capacity as the high season progresses further into the coming months.
