Your guide to Koh Lanta
Krabi · Andaman Coast · Thailand
Koh Lanta is an island destination in Krabi province on the Andaman coast. Most visitor accommodation is on Koh Lanta Yai, where beach time, an east-coast Old Town visit and the southern national-park landscape offer varied days. Choose an offshore excursion separately from your island sightseeing route.
Lanta Old Town
The east-coast settlement also known as Baan Sriraya offers a different setting from the beach resorts. A land route can give context to local life and leave time for a meal.
Southern scenery and offshore islands
Laem Tanot and the national-park area provide a southern island outing. Trips towards Koh Rok or Koh Haa are separate offshore experiences; check their route and seasonal access before reserving.
Check the marine season
Smaller offshore islands and dive areas can have monsoon-season access restrictions. Confirm the operator's current schedule and keep an island land-day option instead of planning every day around a boat.
Allow for a long island layout
Saladan, southern resorts and Old Town are different locations. Enter your exact hotel and compare pickup or meeting-point arrangements before deciding which excursion fits your day.
Questions about visiting Koh Lanta
Which Koh Lanta island is the main visitor base?
Koh Lanta Yai is the main visitor island, with beach accommodation, Saladan and Lanta Old Town. Check the exact hotel area and meeting point when booking an activity.
Is Lanta Old Town on the main beach coast?
Old Town is on the east coast, while many beach resorts are on the west. Allow for the road journey and choose a land route if exploring both sides is a priority.

Not automatically. Koh Rok is an offshore destination requiring a boat excursion. Check the named stops, seasonal access and full duration of the activity.

Yes, as separate stops in an Andaman itinerary. Confirm transport for your dates and allow for the hotel-to-pier journey as well as the crossing or road connection.
