What to do and see in Ko Lanta, Krabi Province: The Best Beaches

September 17, 2021 Florencio Paulino

The dive sites surrounding Ko Lanta are considered to be some of Thailand’s finest. An intricate system of reefs, islets, and underwater caves are teeming with vibrant sea life. While you splash in the waves you may catch a glimpse of a Moken (sea gypsy) boat, gliding nomadically through the waters. Cap off your day with mouthwatering seafood, freshly caught and spicy enough to make your tongue tingle.

Nice beach located in the middle of the island ( west side ). We enjoyed sunset here many times. Here is a lot of bars and restaurants but at the same time very quiet place. Best for travel with family.

Khlong Dao Beach

Reviewed By fubeca

Very quiet and nice. No vendors. Super wide and flat. Really soft sand on upper half and packed sand on lower half. Lots of moms with prams. Lots of joggers. And both actually work well here. Lots of families. Restaurants along beach are all quite nice. A few little markets. Sea entry is clean and soft and really shallow for a long ways out. A pretty perfect beach for young families. It feels really calm and quiet and upscale compared to other beaches we've visited in Thailand.

Nui Beach

Reviewed By STEWY88 - Doncaster, United Kingdom

Hard to find — you climb a steep hill on the scooter and almost at the top you’ll see a wooden shack with a few bikes parked on both sides of the road — slither down the rough path/ steps and notice the pile of discarded flip flops on your left and another 20 yards and you’re there — a golden secluded beach —- crystal clear water - a bar made from driftwood decorated with flotsam and jetsam — a few hammocks under the shade Buy a fruit shake and wonder why you didn’t make the effort to come before - unlikely you’ll be on your own but there will only be a handful of people to share this special place Enjoy !

Bamboo Beach (Had Mai Phai)

Reviewed By D4zmo - Reading, United Kingdom

Stayed in Koh Lanta for 6 months during the covid-19 outbreak . This has been my favourite beach by far. It’s the last beach if you head south on the island before the national park. The entrance is beautiful ,lined with white Thai orchid trees. Usually quiet even in high season as most tourists don’t make it this far down the island. 100% worth a visit.

Khlong Khong Beach

Reviewed By 79_JLo - Brisbane Region, Australia

The stunning Khlong Khong beach is so picturesque with all the rocks, great for swimming the crystal clear water at high tide, and shows off a magical sunset every night. Its a lovely stroll in both directions of the beach to plenty of bars and restaurants (plus more out on the road).
