See what Sriracha has to offer
On your first day at the Novotel Marina Sriracha & Koh Si Chang, consider kicking off your exploration with day trips to nearby attractions so you can fully experience the town’s rich culture and natural beauty. The hotel’s prime location provides easy access to Koh Loy Park, a small island linked to the mainland by a mere 500 meters from the Sriracha coastline. At this picturesque park, you can unwind amidst lush greenery, spot sea turtles gliding through the crystal-clear waters, and visit the revered Koh Loy Sri Maharacha Temple perched atop the island. For those seeking romance, this location serves as a popular spot for couples to witness spectacular sunsets over the glistening sea.
Sriracha is also affectionately known as Thailand’s Little Osaka. And the prime destination to immerse yourself in it is J-Park Nihon Mura, a lively community mall inspired by Japanese culture. From the moment you step inside the mall, you’ll notice red paper lanterns gently sway above you and buildings adorned with intricate designs reminiscent of Japanese castles line your path.
But if you prefer to stay close to the comfort of your room at Novotel Marina Sriracha & Koh Si Chang, there are still plenty of culinary delights and exciting nightlife options to explore. One must-try street food is the Ra Cha ice cream, a local favourite known for its unique flavours and creamy texture. You can also find several street stalls offering Kai Tod Tep, a deliciously crispy fried chicken dish that is sure to satisfy your cravings for savoury snacks. Make sure to keep an eye out for Bua Loy Tad Wan, too. The delicate balance of sweetness from the coconut broth and the subtle chewiness of the rice balls will have you coming back for more!
Explore Koh Si Chang with a boat tour
After a restful sleep at Novotel Marina Sriracha & Koh Si Chang, be sure to book the hotel’s tour of the beautiful Koh Si Chang island.

First on the itinerary is a visit to Chao Pho Khao Yai Shrine, an exquisite Chinese-style Buddhist temple nestled into the cliffside at Koh Si Chang Harbor’s northern tip. Following your time at the shrine, you’ll get to see the Buddha’s Footprint – a symbolic replica of Buddha’s sacred footprint bestowed by King Rama V.
From there, the tour will lead you to the Chong Khao Khad Viewpoint where you can feast your eyes on the mesmerising sights of the turquoise water blending with the horizon and the charming island from above.
