What to do and see in Ko Lanta, Krabi Province: The Best Nature & Parks

August 17, 2021 Hana Mouser

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.

As the name suggests, this is a long beach which provides plenty of suitable places to watch the sunset! There are many hotels, resorts and guest houses scattered along the beach,a.

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.

Khao Mai Kaew Cave

Reviewed By A6692XEbenf - Temecula, United States

This is one of the best experiences in Koh Lanta. Our guide was great and showed us all the tricky spots. I would suggest you be in decent shape for this. There are some very tight spots and it is somewhat challenging. It is a great trek through the jungle and the cave is seriously impressive; spiders, bats, crickets and impressive cave formations. Just awesome!

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 !

Koh Rok Island

Reviewed By Villaolsen - Frederiksberg, Denmark

We took a speedboat from Koh Lanta and visited Koh Rok (and Koh Ha) with two kids, ages 5 and 9. We got to snorkel on two different sites around Koh Rok from the boat, both were quite good. Ate lunch at the beach and saw a couple of big monitor lizards and got to Bath and snorkel from the beach. The place is beautiful even when packed with tourists.

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.
