About this experience

Churches in Koh Yao Yai Village is a small Christian worship site located within the main village on Koh Yao Yai island, off Thailand's Andaman coast. The church serves the local Muslim-majority community's tiny Christian minority and visiting worshippers. Services are held in Thai and English on Sunday mornings, with a simple wooden interior and seating for about 30 people.

What to expect

  • Attend a 60-minute Sunday service at 9:00 AM, led by a local pastor with Thai and English translation
  • View the hand-carved wooden altar and a single stained-glass window depicting a fishing boat, reflecting island life
  • Meet the congregation of roughly 15 regular members, including expatriate retirees and seasonal workers
  • Walk 200 metres from the village pier to the church, a whitewashed building with a blue cross on the roof
  • Suitable for travellers interested in comparative religion or quiet reflection, not for large tour groups
  • The church hosts a monthly potluck lunch on the first Sunday, open to all visitors after the service
