Spend a Few Nights in Ko Lanta

Ko Lanta is a Muslim-majority small island located in the southern part of Krabi and it offers a great alternative to Ao Nang with its more peaceful vibe, much quieter beaches, and one of the best sunset spots in Thailand. It is a big enough island (about 30 kilometers long and 6 kilometers wide) with an impressive, well-connected, and well-paved road system. It is no wonder that one of the main tourist activities here is cruising on these empty roads on a motorbike. Island tours, eco-tourism, and diving are the other common activities on Ko Lanta.

To get to Ko Lanta, you are going to have to take a van from either Ao Nang or Krabi Town and they will drive you to Ko Lanta in an hour with a ferry transfer. Once you are there, you can spend a night or two near Pra-Ae Beach, rent a scooter and explore all the beautiful beaches Ko Lanta has to offer. Ko Lanta is also known for its beautiful sunset. If you make it all the way to Ko Lanta, be sure to spare time to enjoy the little things this place has to offer.
