About Koh Lanta


Koh Lanta is a collection of islands, the largest of which is Koh Lanta Yai and this is where nearly all of the tourist accommodation is and most of the bars and restaurants. Koh Lanta Yai has nine white sand beaches, the most popular of which is Klong Dao beach which is the closest beach to Ban Saladan Pier. South of Klong Dao beach is Phra Ae (Long Beach) which is also popular but quieter as the accommodation is spread out along the length of the beach. The majority of the visitors to the island stay at one of these two beaches. If you want even more peace and quiet try Ao Nui further to the south of Koh Lanta Yai.

As well as enjoying the beaches a full range of water sports are available on Koh Lanta. There are some good dive sites nearby and two companies offer guided sea kayak tours around the mangrove forests and other interesting parts of the island. You might also consider visiting Koh Lanta Old Town, which has an interesting mix of cultures. Chinese migrants and Chao Ley (sea gypsies) settled in Koh Lanta town alongside Thai fishermen. Koh Lanta also has a cave complex in the centre of the island. The Khao Mai Kaew Caves are accessible by fixed ladders and some of the caves feature impressive stalactites and stalagmites.
