Ko Koh Khoa - Never heard of this place. It's interesting how these little Andaman island rise up overnight and start to appear on tourists trails. I've been around long enough to remember when Koh Lanta, Koh Hai, Koh Bulon, Koh Lipe were all virtually deserted (except for sea-gypsies) Of course if any island does start to really become popular the Thais will start to build bars & discos, working on the false premise that tourists really want & need these things. I well remember walking along the beach at Railay back in the mid-1980s and I can across a Thai man erecting some large structure. I asked him what he was building and he told me a disco. I tried to talk him out of it, explaining that the tourists who came to this place only wanted peace and tranquility, virgin tropical splendour; If they want discos they go to Phuket or Pattaya, I said. Well, I doubt if he took my views onboard because the disco was built, as were many others, along with thumping beach bars. It does seem hard to find the islands with just the right mix of comfy amenities but not yet spoilt. And it seems as soon as you find one it's already on its way to becoming spoilt. Anyway, happy island hunting.
