Koh Lanta top beaches are undoubtedly some of the best in Thailand. Despite the subjectivity related to natural beauty, the beaches of this island are highlighted when we consider tranquility and the exclusivity of this less crowded places.
With this evaluation, which will always have a personal character and with which there will be those who do not agree, we have tried to evaluate each beach according to some attributes. The water, the location, accessibility, exclusivity or privacy and, finally, the offer of restaurants and bars. Each person will give more or less importance to each of the aspects but here, our goal is to convey what the beach has to offer.
Khlong Nin beach
It is located in the center of the island and has a long stretch of sand. It is great for diving, despite having some rocks. It is also relatively uncrowded and you can have a quiet and relaxed beach day.
Nui Beach
This beach, one of the two beaches of Koh Lanta with this name, is immediately south of Klong Nin Beach. It is a small beach, with a relatively more complicated access, ideal if you are searching for a private place.
Klong Jark Beach
North of Bamboo beach, You’ll find Khlong Jark Beach, a smaller version of the first. This beach is part of the set of options for those who seek the quiet and escape the day-to-day hustle and bustle.
Klong Dao Beach
Khlong Dao Beach is a beach in the north of the island, the closest to Saladan Pier. Despite having the same look of other beaches in Koh Lanta, the fact that there are some excess of resorts and people makes it less attractive, from our point of view.

]]>Visinting a Sea Gypsy village may be another reason to go South-east of Koh Lanta. This people with a unique lifestyle, centered on the sea, is believed to have been the first to inhabit the island, despite its predominantly nomadic culture. Their villages are characterized by houses that, supported by stakes, lay over the sea, guarded by fishing boats.

Going these villages is worth not only for the place itself, for the possibility of witnessing a unique and ancestral way of life, but also for the way there. In between the ups and downs you will find some restaurants hanging on the slopes of the island, with breathtaking views of the sea and the surrounding islands. We stoped at Sang Ga or WiewPoint to have a drink and relax a bit.

Take advantage of the proximity in the day you visit Old Town and make this little detour to explore the most genuine side of the island. It should be noted a sea gypsy village is not a tourist attraction and that our passage should be respectful, discreet and never intrusive.
From the Old Town just follow the road leading south, with your eyes on the left side. After about 7 kms you will find the access to the village.
