Chicken Island (Ko Kai), Krabi

Chicken Island is the nickname for Ko Kai, often written as Koh Gai and Koh Hua Khwan, a small islet off the shore in Krabi Province.

Chicken Island got its name from the strange rock formation at one tip of the island that looks like the head and neck of an ostrich, chicken or a similar member of the fowl family. One end of the island consists of steep cliffs, while the other end has beautiful beaches along a peninsula. At high tide, this peninsula gets flooded, creating a small island. There is no accommodation on Chicken Island. Chicken Island offers excellent snorkeling opportunities in its warm and clear water which is rich in coral. As Chicken Island is not affected by the monsoon, it can be visited all year round.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
