Right next to the 80th Anniversary Park (listed as City Park on Google Maps) is this old pontoon that juts far out into the sea. It's not a must-see, but I found it charming, especially since just a few hundred meters away you're surrounded by rice paddies and the rural landscape of Koh Yao Noi. So, for me, it's worth a visit. In the evenings, the park is a popular meeting place for locals who exercise, do aerobics, or play football there.

Free entry. We are located on the west side of Koh Yao Noi, so it's also an interesting place to watch the sunset.

I got there during my short bike tour around the island. Besides using private songthaews, the best way to get around Koh Yao Noi is by rented scooter (some even have a sidecar). It's essential to follow the traffic rules and make sure you have adequate insurance. Alternatively, you can also rent a mountain bike.
