Ang Thong National Marine Park is a fascinating archipelago of 42 islands in the Central Gulf Coast of Southern Thailand, in the northwest of Ko Samui. Most of the islands are close to each other, making a breathtaking panorama when sailing around the park. Most of them are covered with tropical forests and named after their distinguishing geography, a kind of descriptive appellation, such as 'Sleeping Cow Island' and 'Three Pillars Island'.
The Park is a protected nature of uninhabited and undeveloped island area expect for two. One being Ko Wua Talap and other, Ko Paluay, which is inhabited by sea gypsies who still earn a living from fishing.
Our goal is to make understand different aspect of this archipelago by explaining its location, fauna and flora, and touristic attraction. The last point help us to analyze its economic aspect and to weigh the pros and cons about tourism in Thailand and make proposals to improve it.
By the section, we represented the relation between city life and island life, by showing touristic effects from the island to the city and vice vesa.
