Koh Lanta
Information
The popularity of Koh Lanta has increased tenfold in the last five
years. Situated 70 kilometers from the province of Krabi, Koh Lanta
archipelago, famously known in Thai as Moo Koh Lanta, comprises
of more than 50 islands and lies in the Andaman Sea off the west
coast of Southern Thailand. The inhabitants are spread over two
islands: Koh Lanta Yai and Koh Lanta Noi. The most popular one for
tourists is, without a doubt, Koh Lanta Yai which boasts the most
beautiful beaches and provides vacationers with more activities
than they can bargain for.
Koh Lanta Noi is less popular as the island is the administrative
center of Koh Lanta. Some of the locals live there and there are
practically no hotels or resorts on Koh Lanta Noi, though lately
the construction sites are becoming more apparent. But five-star
spots have been slow to move to Koh Lanta Noi.
Travelling to Koh Lanta nowadays is easy. Flights leave daily from
Bangkok to Krabi and it takes about one hour from Krabi Airport
to reach Hua Hin Pier to catch a car ferry that will take visitors
to Koh Lanta Noi and then to Koh Lanta Yai by another ferry. All
in all, it will take people about three hours to get to their resorts
in Koh Lanta Yai from the Bangkok airport, and that also depends
on which part of Koh Lanta Yai they are heading to. Therefore, to
holiday in Koh Lanta one may need more days than other holiday spots
in Thailand. But it is worth it because once people arrive on Koh
Lanta; they will never want to leave.
Beaches are the main places of interest in Koh Lanta. Offering
more than ten (it depends who counts what), each of them has its
own charm and characteristic. It has to be said that without a determination
to visit all of them, it’s difficult for visitors to call
on all the beaches in Koh Lanta during one trip, as it is easy to
fall in love with one quickly, and comfort will settle which makes
it harder to move on.
