Sunset on Koh Lanta

Sunset on Koh Lanta

www.dubstar.ch
Several years ago, Ko Lanta was an offbeat destination inhabited only by Muslim fishermen who couldn't understand why anyone would visit their hot, remote island. Ko Lanta today has over a dozen bungalows stretched along the west coast, from the northern village of Ban Sala Dan down to Ban Sangka U at the southern tip. Getting to this island can be a bit tedious but not difficult.Once you're there however, you will realise that its worth the effort. A long ride in a small ferry from Krabi must be taken. You can also take a train to Trang and find a local truck with seats in the back that will take you for an hour long ride to another ferry point.

Ko Lanta archipelago consists of 52 islands, but only Ko Lanta Yai and a few small islets have formal accommodations. Ko Lanta offers some fairly good beaches almost completely untouched by mass tourism, and a bit of skin diving over offshore coral beds. Another sidelight is the near-complete dominance of Islam on the island, a world where Muslim mosques vastly outnumber Buddhist wats. Public nudity is discouraged.

If you are looking for a holiday to just unwind,feel the breeze in your hair,go back into time,this is the place.With just enough of technology, to say connected to the rest of the world, by means of a few internet cafes and ISd calling stations,this is a wonderful retreat from the maddenning crowds.Getting around is easy,as you can rent bikes taht come with helmets or one can hop into the native version of a rikshaw.There are beach parties all over,a disco,massage parlours and even thai cooking classes.Food id clean and hygienic,available at all times with convenience stores everywhere.Hotels are plenty,with friendly staff, though communicating might pose aproblem sometimes.

One can go scuba diving,snorkelling,cave exploring,on a jungle safari or simply gat a tan on the beach.The evenings are the best time to venture out,enjoy a drink by the beach and head to a party nearby.If you happen to be around for the Lanta festival,you cant miss it.Wonderful colours,smells and sounds amke it an unforgettable experience, with foot massages,skits,puppet shows, and cultural shows a part of the evenings itenary.You cant miss the food all over which is clean,affordable and very sumptous.One get get a lot of good bargains by way of clothes and accessories.

The monsoons bring heavy downpours June-October. You can usually find bicycles to rent to explore the island. Bring water and food with you though as supplies are hard to come by on the east side of the island.

A Great Place to Stay in Ko Lanta

Lanta Full Moon Bay Resort

I just finished a 7 day stay at Lanta Full Moon Bay View Resort and I loved almost every minute of it!

The room was cheap 700Baht (around $20) a night, the people were extremely friendly and helpful, it was clean, the food was great and cheap (around 100Baht $3 per person or less!)

The pool is great, the water is warm and clean. The beach is great when the high tide is in, and as the tide goes out you can snorkel and watch interesting fish swim around. There are small crabs bolting across the sand and digging little holes and geckos chirping in trees. The staff keeps several cats around and they are all very friendly and sweet animals. I think that accounts for the lack of mice :)

The owners helped me book all of my excursions, they were very knowledgeable and helpful. I had so much fun and relaxation thanks to them. Anything I needed they helped me out with it. They also have a computer hooked up to the internet that you can use for free.

There are only a few negatives about this place. There are no mosquito nets and the beach is a bit rocky unless you swim at high tide. But the price and the wonderful people totally make up for that.

As an added bonus there is a 7eleven just down the street from the resort with an ATM and candy :) Also there is only one other resort on this stretch of beach. It is really quiet and relaxing, but just a short (really short) beach walk to the happening places.

I came primarily to relax and I got more than I expected. Oh and I forgot to add that their bar tender is awesome! He makes beautiful drinks that are really tasty (about 140-150Baht) and he is super nice (like everyone that works here!)

Koh Lanta Island Thailand
________Sights

Klong dao beach
The most popular beach in Koh Lanta. Klong Dao Beach is a friendly beach thanks to its shallow water, low tides and spotless sand and is perfect for swimming. When the sea level is lower, the stretch of the beach widens and becomes great for beach side sports such as volleyball-it also forms a great natural morning running track. The 3-km beach is currently one of the most developed beaches on the island now-the number of high-end resorts has increased in recent years, joining the family owned bungalows and other middle-range and budget hotels. Twenty of the largest and most well known resorts, many with air-conditioned bungalows, swimming pools and hot water are dotted along this beach, interspersed with charming, inexpensive Thai-Style bungalows.
