Special place

By far this is a special place on Ko Lanta, one of my favorite beaches for swimming. "Why Not Bar" is right here on the beach/bay, and apparently is fun at night.

Very beautiful beach

Nice beach, they clean it up and there aren't many stones or hard sharp shells or dead coral so you can have a nice stroll on the beach without hurting your feet

There are no beds or umbrellas except those belonging to the Pimalai and the next door hotel. Some natural shade near the why not bar but it's always quite busy so you won't have it to yourself. Further away from the why not bar if...More

Paradise!

Perhaps, myself and partners favourite beach. Not too many people, and a bit of a ride down...but worth it! There are a couple of shady points, but these are in high demand, even with so little people visiting. There’s some good food on the cliff...More

Not as quiet as it could be!

Kantiang Bay is clearly where all the backpackers staying at cheaper locations gravitate to on their scooters, so the traffic on the approach to the beach is practically ceaseless, even into the early hours of the morning. It may be less crowded than the rest...More
