Koh Lanta is in fact a district consisting of several islands. The two largest are
Koh Lanta Noi and Koh Lanta Yai. Whilst Noi is inhabited, it is Koh Lanta Yai that
is becoming recognised as an up-and-coming tourist destination with much to offer
visitors to the Land of Smiles.
Popular with tourists seeking a holiday away from the big parties associated with
some of the other Thai islands such as Koh Phan Ngan and Koh Phi Phi; the islands
main attractions are beach walks, nature trails and lazy days enjoying the clear
blue waters. It’s a tough life!
Koh Lanta is just a sceninc hours journey by ferry from Krabi and makes the perfect base to explore some of the other close lying islands on days trips.
