Lanta Old Town steeped in history.
Lanta Old Town is a hidden gem on Koh Lanta Island, Thailand, and truly captures the essence of local Thai culture. The people here are incredibly warm, friendly, and always willing to share their stories and traditions. As I strolled through the narrow streets, I was fascinated by the well-preserved Chinese-style wooden houses, reflecting the area's historical importance as a trading port. The vibrant colors and intricate detailing were simply stunning. The local cuisine is a must-try, with traditional Thai dishes bursting with flavors and fresh seafood that will delight your taste buds. Lanta Old Town is a serene and authentic destination worth exploring for its captivating cultural experience.#lanta #oldtown
Koh Lanta Memories
Koh Lanta was a great place to get away from the noise and sweat of Bangkok and the winter of home. Big enough to explore new things every day, still the island speed and lifestyle feel. Sunsets, beach walks, snorkeling from boat and beach, and a variety of foods to choose from. And, of course, a 7-11 around every corner. #beachlife #kohlanta

Beautiful sunset sky in Koh Lanta
Here is a photo of one of the sunsets in Koh Lanta. I really enjoy Koh Lanta because it's so peaceful and not too crowded compared to Krabi (Ao Nang).
Koh Lanta | The secluded treasure island you start to miss as soon as you leave
Koh Lanta is a beautiful hidden paradise, where 70% of the residents are Muslim, and there is also a very beautiful mosque. If you like quiet, less crowded islands, this is definitely a great destination.
It is an offshore island of Krabi Province in Thailand, located at the southernmost tip, facing Phuket Island across the sea. The island is long and narrow, stretching from north to south. On the west side of Koh Lanta is a 25-kilometer-long coastline, where the beaches from north to south have increasingly finer white sand and fewer and fewer people. On the east side are continuous hills and mountains, where in the depths of the dense mangrove forests, lie quaint, rugged, and mysterious villages of the islanders.
Mu Ko Lanta National Park is the most beautiful place in Koh Lanta, with crystal clear waters and soft, fine sandy beaches, truly possessing the most beautiful seascape!
Is Lanta National Park worth visiting?
👏 Located at the southern tip of Lanta Island, Lanta National Park is a paradise for nature-loving hikers and diving enthusiasts who enjoy exploring the mysterious underwater world.
💥 Due to its remote location, the ecological environment is very well-preserved. Most visitors get there by motorcycle, and some arrange a car from their hotel. I think this significantly limits the experience of exploring the area. Driving south from the central part of Lanta, the scenery along the way is beautiful, with the ocean view just a stop away on the right hand side. On the way back, stop at a cliff restaurant or beach bar for a meal and a drink, and you'll find the view is unexpectedly stunning.
🏞 The rugged hills are simply a hiker's heaven! I followed the mountain road upwards, crossing about three hills, and then there was the sea below.
🌅 The southernmost tip of Lanta Island National Park—Laem Tanod peninsula cliffs—is not to be missed! I climbed the white lighthouse and stood on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the beaches that extend on both sides of the peninsula, feeling the grandeur of the cliffs and the panoramic view of several islands, as if standing at the end of the world, experiencing the charm of nature and life!
😋 There is a pavilion near the Laem Tanod peninsula cliffs where you can buy drinks and some simple food, and having an iced coconut there is just awesome!
Hotel Recommendations in Krabi, Thailand
If you have been to Bangkok, been to Pattaya, and been to Phuket,
then Krabi could be your next destination.
If you are tired of crowded beaches, tired of hotels filled with Chinese tourists, tired of rushing around,
then the hotel I am about to recommend could be your next stop:
The Bimala Krabi Resort.
It is located on an island, but the hotel offers a one-stop airport pickup service.
Once you arrive at Krabi Airport, a hotel car and a private yacht will be waiting to welcome you.
The hotel's food is also very delicious, so enjoy your holiday to the fullest.

Bamboo Beach
#krabitrip
My favorite point when went on an island-hopping vacation with friends. We reached there early in the morning and there was hardly anyone else on the beach. It's a white sand beach and water is crystal clear which gives one a perfect opportunity to snorkel. The entire beach is around 600m long and is a part of a national park. You have to give 400 baht as an entrance fee to get there. There's a small bar on the island which serves beer and snacks.
In addition to island hopping and diving, Koh Lanta is also super fun to explore
🏖️⛱️ Many friends have been privately messaging us, asking what else there is to do on Koh Lanta in Krabi Province besides island hopping and snorkeling. Since we need more time to edit the video materials, we'll first share a photo and text note to introduce a few distinctive activities. Be sure to save it.
1⃣ Koh Lanta has 9 charming beaches, the further south you go, the fewer people there are. As long as the weather is good, you can take beautiful photos anywhere. Plus, they all face west, so you can see the stunning sunset from any spot, and the colors are different at various times. Make sure to catch the sunset!
2⃣ Near Bakantiang Beach, there are many cliffside restaurants that are perfect for taking panoramic and bird's-eye view photos. Even if you don't go to the restaurants, you can find many suitable spots for taking pictures. Recommended! (Be careful for safety)
3⃣ Hotel swimming pools are standard on the island. Choose any hotel close to the beach, and you can capture the beauty of the sea meeting the sky right from the pool!
4⃣ There are a lot of rubber trees on Koh Lanta, and the sap is the raw material for Thai latex pillows. You can visit to broaden your knowledge. Remember to smell it; the scent is definitely intoxicating!
5⃣ On the island, of course, you should drink coconut water. Coconut trees are also standard in beach hotels. If interested, you can ask the staff to experience the joy of picking coconuts together.
6⃣ The southernmost part is the Lanta National Park. The entrance fee for foreigners is 200 Thai Baht for adults, 100 Thai Baht for children, 20 Thai Baht for motorcycles, and 30 Thai Baht for cars. There is a beautiful lighthouse that you can climb, and lovely beaches for swimming.
🏝️ Stay tuned for more travel tips on Koh Lanta.
Krabi Cosi Hotel and White Temple.
It nice and relaxing holiday. Hope to go again soon.
It's amazing, who dares to stay in such a hotel
