Koh Lanta

A large island charming with the cultural diversity of Thai Buddhists, Muslims, and sea gypsies. Highlights include more than 13 long beaches around the island, such as Klong Dao Beach, and Lanta Old Town, which is full of ancient wooden houses and chic shops. Tourists like to relax in a slow-life style, cycle around the island, or enjoy a seaside spa. The atmosphere here is quieter and more private than other islands, making it ideal for families or couples who want to spend their long holidays amidst the sea breeze and simple lifestyle.
