The story
Koh Fan Yai and Koh Fan Noi are two small islets just off the eastern end of Choeng Mon Beach. You can kayak out to them from the beach, and there is some coral around them for snorkelling. Most of Koh Fan Yai is taken up by a private resort, so visitors should stay on the shore below the high-tide line. When the wind blows from the east, the water gets choppy and visibility drops.
