This expansive nature reserve, about 50 kilometers east of Rayong, belongs to the Botanical Gardens Organization, which carries out various projects throughout Thailand to protect unique natural areas. Other projects are located in Chiang Mai, Khon Kaen, Phitsanulok, Sukhothai, and Phang Nga. The Rayong Botanical Garden encompasses extensive wetlands of 3,800 square meters, which you can explore by boat or kayak (rentals available on-site) and discover the flora and fauna, especially the birdlife. There is also a forest, parts of which resemble a primeval forest, and is excellent for cycling (mountain bikes are available for rent). Besides the classic botanical garden with its plants, some of which grow nowhere else, it is above all the extraordinary natural setting that makes the garden one of the absolute highlights of Rayong Province. Plan at least an hour for exploring by bicycle or boat, ideally two hours for both. Be aware that the garden is very popular on weekends and often crowded with locals.

Entrance fee: 30 THB. Open from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. Mountain bike rental: 50 THB (regardless of rental duration). Bicycles with child seats are not available, and there are a few children's bicycles available as well. Kayak rental: 100 THB per hour. Boat tour (1 hour): 600 THB per boat (max. 8 people). Camping is also possible. Telephone: 038 638 880
