Si-Chang Island in Brief

     Si-Chang Island is situated 12 km from the shore of Sri Racha District and 117 km from Metropolitan Bangkok.

     The total area is about 18 sq.km. (11,250 rai). Eighty percent of the area is hilly and rocky. A rocky grassland of about 500 rai is in the middle part of the island. There are no major rivers, streams or ponds on the islands, except one man-made reservoir. Sixty-seven percent of the island lies between 0 and 50 metres above MSL, 26% at 50 to 100 metres above SML, 6% at 100 to 150 metres above MSL and 1% is above 150 metres MSL. The coastal area on the western side of the island consists mainly of rocky shores and steep cliffs while the eastern consists of rocky beach. The water around Si-Chang is mostly greater than 20 metres deep which was deemed suitable for the development of a deep seaport.
