Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Hidden away on the island of Koh Chang in Trat province lies the RockBar, a popular bar that attracts both travelers and locals looking for a relaxed yet lively evening. Thanks to excellent reviews from visitors, it has established itself as one of the island's most reliable spots for evening drinks and good company, offering the laid-back bar atmosphere that perfectly complements the island's coastal flair.

Guests can expect a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere, typical of the better beach bars on the islands in the Gulf of Thailand. The rock theme gives the bar a special character that sets it apart from the usual beach bars, and the moderate prices ensure it's affordable without feeling like a tourist trap. Whether you're stopping by for a cold beer after an exciting day or just want to unwind in the evening, the bar has something for everyone.

Since opening hours are not listed online, it is advisable to inquire locally or at your accommodation before arrival, especially outside of peak season, as the opening hours of establishments on the island can be irregular then. The bar is located in Thanon Rural in Tambon Koh Chang and, like most destinations on the island, is best reached by motorbike taxi or rented scooter. Peak season on Koh Chang runs from November to April; the bar is expected to be busiest during this time.
