Life on the Island
Living Gently with Nature’s Rhythm

Life on Koh Phaluai, the largest island in Ang Thong National Marine Park, unfolds in harmony with nature and simplicity. This untouched eco-island is powered almost entirely by solar energy and surrounded by lush forests, clean beaches, and vibrant marine life.

​

With a small population of around 450 residents, most locals earn their living through fishing and other small community activities, maintaining a lifestyle that has remained largely unchanged for generations. 

​

With no big resorts, busy roads, or commercial development, Koh Phaluai remains one of Thailand’s rare destinations for sustainable living and mindful retreat. Visitors can experience how the community lives in balance with the rhythms of the sea, the forest, and the land — a serene reminder of the simplicity, peace, and harmony that is possible when humans live close to nature.
