Lanta Krabi hotel : Thailand Hotels accommodation
Although less scenic than some other areas in the province, Koh
Lanta is perhaps the most idyllic area available in Krabi.
While lacking the towering karsts, Lanta offers travelers something
that is growing increasingly difficult to find on Phi Phi or Pranang:
peace and quiet.
With over 19 pristine, tree-lined beaches, remarkably friendly
residents, and inexpensive accommodations, Lanta Island is the perfect
place to go for a serene, relaxing vacation.
A section of the southern portion of the island was recently made into
a national marine park, and further south is a large community of sea
gypsies.
How to get there: Passenger boats to Lanta cost 150 baht and can
be taken from the Chao Fah pier, Krabi. Lanta can also be reached by a
combination of minibus/ferry. Minibuses to Bo Muang leave from in front
of the TAT sub-office in Krabi, and cost 40 baht. Ferries from Bo Muang
to Lanta Island leave at 12.30 and 2.00 pm, for another 40 baht. Ferries
can also be taken to the new port at Saladan, which is more developed,
for 50 baht. This ferry leaves Bo Muang at 1.30 pm.
Beaches, Lanta Island: Klong Dao, Phra Ae, Klong Koang, Klong Nin,
Kantiang.
