The main departure point for Ko Chang and the outer islands is the tiny port of LAEM NGOP , 17km southwest of Trat and served by songthaews from Thanon Sukhumvit (every 20min; 20-40min). You can buy ferry tickets,

change money and reserve island accommodation (definitely worthwhile in peak season) at the pier. The TAT office (daily 8.30am-4.30pm; tel 039/597255) is close by. You can extend your visa at the Laem Ngop Immigration Office, 3km northeast of Laem Ngop pier, on the road to Trat. The friendly, efficient Chut Kaew guesthouse (tel 039/597088; under $5) is close to the bank on the main road, about seven minutes' walk from the pier; you can store luggage here while you're on Ko Chang.
