There's more to do outdoors
on this island than we can fit into the site–but try clicking on some
of the choices below to get an idea of the variety available...
Fishing is still the economic mainstay of Ko Sichang,and there
are plenty of fish and squid to be found in the waters around the island.
The key to a successful fishing expedition is knowing where to go, and what
bait and tackle to use. Squid are so common, and so voracious, that it takes
some doing not to catch one from just about anywhere on the shore, including
the new pier in front of the Sichang Palace Hotel. For shore fishing, many
of the samlor drivers will rent you a rod, or take you where someone else
will. The big mackerel and grouper that run up to 20 kg need a boat, some
luck and a good guide. Here again, advance reservations will make a big difference.
There's also some good spearfishing around some of the rocks near the island,
and the Thai Public Port pier; again, a boat is needed. You can get contact
numbers from Pan & David-- see the "eat" page.
