DISCOVER 5 TRADITIONAL JOBS STILL THRIVING ON KOH KRET

These enduring occupations offer a glimpse into the authentic rhythm of life on this charming riverside island.

1. MON POTTERY MAKER
Traditional Mon pottery makers are among the most iconic artisans of Koh Kret. They craft handmade earthenware using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Using local clay and traditional kilns, they create functional pottery that reflects Mon-inspired craftsmanship, local wisdom, and the island’s well-preserved way of life.

2. FOOD AND SOUVENIR VENDOR
More than just running small home-based businesses, food and souvenir vendors turn heritage into everyday experiences. Produced and sold from home-front shops, these distinctive local products reflect Koh Kret’s cultural heritage. Each creation showcases the island’s flavors, creativity, and identity, making Koh Kret a place unlike any other.

3. FERRY BOAT OPERATOR
Regarded as the backbone of island life, ferry boat operators have been the essential link that keeps Koh Kret connected. As there are no bridges leading directly to the mainland, ferry services remain the island’s only means of access. Despite being a short trip across the Chao Phraya River, the ferry remains a cherished symbol of Koh Kret.

4. HERBAL PRODUCER
Many residents of Koh Kret continue to earn a living as herbal producers. They cultivate a range of healing herbs and medicinal plants in small household gardens. Available at small-scale local shops across the island, these products are known for their outstanding quality and natural herbal properties. Some brands have become very popular among herbal enthusiasts.

5. TEMPLE AND MONK CARETAKER
Temple and monk caretakers play an important role in sustaining the spiritual and cultural life of Koh Kret. They help maintain temple grounds, support monks in their daily activities, and assist with religious ceremonies and temple operations. Through their commitment and dedication, they are key contributors to preserving the island’s religious and cultural heritage.

These are the people behind the traditions that make Koh Kret truly special.
