Why this trip
Koh Jum is one of the last quiet islands in the Andaman Sea, and if you come with children, you should take that literally: few roads, sand paths, fishermen and hammocks. From November to April is the dry season, when the sea is calm and the days sunny. The flight time is around 11 to 12 hours. There is no programme in the usual sense here, and that is the appeal: children collect shells, watch crabs in the sand, swim in tidal pools at low tide and sleep in the hammock after lunch.
If you need the children's attention, take a longtail boat to the neighbouring islands between Krabi and Koh Lanta. The infrastructure is simple: small bungalows, few shops, hardly any traffic. For families that means you should bring medication, sun protection and toys. Krabi and Phuket are the larger neighbours with doctors and shops if something is missing.
Plan the journey in several stages and allow for a boat to the island. Whether Koh Jum suits your children is best discussed in a video call with Swiss Vibes.
Getting there
On a journey with children every hour counts, so from Zurich or Basel-Mulhouse Swiss Vibes chooses short and calm connections where possible.
