Tha Pae Yoi Village and Pier (Koh Phra Thong)
9° 9.0′ N · 98° 17.9′ E
Phra Thong's main east-side fishing village, home to Moken and Thai families, with a pier, a school, the sub-district office and a staffed community health centre.
Practical
Coordinate is the OSM-mapped Pae Yooi Pier. The health centre (รพ.สต.เกาะพระทอง) is mapped at 9.15113, 98.29598. Fewer than 300 people live in the island's villages (Wikipedia). There are basic shops only, so provision in Kuraburi or Ranong. The pier is on the inner, mangrove-lined channel, so check the tide before taking a dinghy in.
