Забронировать и сохранить Аонанг Ко Ланта

Lanta is one of the most beautiful islands in Thailand. There is a different explanation about the origin of the island’s name. Some people say that the Malay ancestors used to call it “Pulau Satak” meaning “long beach”, which makes sense as its coastline is very long and has almost a dozen beaches which some of them are considered to be the most amazing in the country. Another explanation is that it may have been originated from the word “Lantas” a Javanese word, which means “fish grill” which also can make sense since the island is famous for the breathtaking underwater life and the coral reefs.

Koh Lanta is less popular than the famous Koh Phi Phi yet, it has one of the best spots for swimming and diving just like the rest of Krabi’s islands. It is known for snorkeling and diving.

The island is not crowded nor too developed but the facilities and the services Lanta offers are enough to live in comfort.

Koh Lanta doesn’t have an airport. The nearest airports are in Krabi, Phuket, and Trang. Krabi’s airport is the most popular to travel to Koh Lanta since the island is part of Krabi’s province and it’s approximately 70km away from Krabi Town.
