Chaloem Burapha Chonlathit — Chanthaburi to Trat Coastal Road.
Thailand's answer to a Mediterranean corniche: the Chaloem Burapha Chonlathit scenic road threads the quiet eastern seaboard between Chanthaburi and Trat, swinging over red-rock headlands and past casuarina-lined beaches with almost no traffic. The S-curves below Noen Nangphaya viewpoint are the most photographed stretch of coastal road in the country. Easy riding, big views, great seafood — an ideal rest-day ride or a relaxed link toward the Koh Chang ferries.

The route.
ChanthaburiStart · Start in Chanthaburi's riverside old town — three centuries of gem-trading history and some of Thailand's best noodle alleys. Head west to pick up the coastal road.
Kung Wiman BeachScenic Point · Kung Wiman Beach opens the prettiest stretch of the route — red laterite headlands and pine-backed sand, far quieter than Thailand's resort coasts.
Noen Nangphaya ViewpointPhoto Spot · The most famous road photograph in eastern Thailand: the highway's S-curves hugging the turquoise sea below. Love-lock railing at the top — bring a padlock if you're sentimental.
Laem Sing BeachRestaurant · Grilled seafood shacks under the casuarinas at the mouth of the Chanthaburi River. Quiet, local, and cheap — a proper Thai beach lunch.
TratEnd · End in Trat, gateway town for the Koh Chang archipelago. Excellent night market; ferry piers are 20 minutes south if you're island-bound tomorrow.
