km. Tarutao is the main island where Survivor: Thailand was filmed.
The main island, Koh Tarutao, was a prison for hundreds of

Terrain: The rugged but beautiful island, about 150 sq km
in area, has limestone and sandstone mountains that reach past 700

tropical reefs, mangroves and tropical forests. The waters,
surrounding the islands, clear and translucent, are pollution free
and care has been taken to make sure that they remain so

The two original tribes of
Survivor: Thailand were Sook Jai and Chuay Gahn. Eventually the
two were merged into the Chuay Jai tribe.
