Its pale sandy shoreline and clear shallows make the eastern beach a focus for visitors. Ko Kradan belongs to Ko Libong Subdistrict in Kantang District and forms part of Hat Chao Mai National Park. It is a distinct island from Ko Muk and the smaller snorkelling stops of Ko Chueak and Ko Waen, even though tours often connect them.
TAT identifies Pak Meng and Kuan Tung Ku as mainland departure options; confirm the actual transfer and landing with the provider. Some trips are day excursions while others serve overnight stays. Bring suitable luggage for boat handling and a cash reserve, as connectivity and power arrangements can limit payments. The announced June–September 2026 park closure has ended; check for newer site or reef restrictions before swimming or snorkelling.
