Koh Lanta Beaches
Klong Dao Beach
This beach is the most populous of those offered on Lanta, with several bungalows
at very reasonable prices.
Located 2 km from the Saladan pier, this beach offers visitors clean, sparkling
sand, tepid, translucent waters, and excellent views of the surrounding areas.
Pha-Ae Beach ( Long Beach)
At the northern end of Lanta, this beach is known for its fine sand and quickly
shelving coastline.
Where to stay: Accommodation at Phra Ae are extremely affordable, and the food
is sumptious. Like most of the beaches on Lanta Island, recreational activities
are few and far between.
Klong Kong Beach
This beach, 2 km south of Phra Ae, is extremely peaceful, and has excellent accommodation
at bargain prices.
Although the food is not quite as good as at Phra Ae, the beaches are isolated,
tranquil and serene.
Klong Nin Beach
Like nearly all the beaches on Lanta, Klong Nin is isolated and quiet. Fine, sandy
beaches are essentially all one will encounter here, and the accommodations are
adequate.
Again, this is not the place to go if you want to go jet-skiing or para-sailing,
but perfect if you want to read a book on a beautiful beach.
Ba Kantiang Beach
Towards the southern tip of the island, Kantiang beach is one of the most beautiful
on Koh Lanta.
Although accommodations are only average, the sparkling sands and iridescent aquamarine
waters more than compensate.
There is also excellent snorkeling available in the surrounding area.
