Koh Lanta Port is situated on the tip of the most southern island of Koh Lanta, laying just off the southwest coast of Thailand. Koh Lanta is comprised of several smaller islands, only connected via the ferry routes operating between them. Ditching its previous tag as a quintessential party destination for backpackers and travellers, Koh Lanta is now regarded as a haven for the European middle class. Offering visitors the chance to dine in fine restaurants and reside in luxurious resorts, the atmosphere is much more serene than many of Thailand’s neighbouring islands and is generally a significantly older crowd than other tourist areas. The island is one of the largest in the group, stretching for 30 km in length and 6 km in width. It is covered by lush greenery, extravagant restaurants and nine stunning beaches, making it easy to see why it’s considered such an idyllic holiday location. The port is fairly easy to access, though it is sitting 6.5 km away from the nearest major town, meaning the best way to get there is by taxi. There are public minivans operating; they don’t stop at the port itself but can provide a cheap option to get in close proximity. For transport to and from the island, the ferry routes are the only option available. The crossing to Phuket is the most common, lasting for around two hours and typically running a couple of times a day. It is advised to check for live updates due to the erratic weather conditions; sometimes the crossing times can run less frequently in the rainy seasons.
Situated to the southwest of the Thailand mainland, Koh Kradan Port belongs to an island resting on the cerulean blue Andaman Sea. Boasting postcard-picture white sand beaches, snorkelling opportunities and low-tide sandbars, Koh Kradan is renowned for being one of the most beautiful and exciting islands belonging to Thailand. The styles of beaches vary across the island; some are known for their range of activities such as snorkelling and kayaking, whereas some are secluded beaches perfect for lazy days in the sun. Much like many of the islands laying nearby Thailand, Koh Kradan has maintained its authentic feel and is yet to succumb to many of the modern advances of the 21st Century. There is no airport so the only access to the island is via boat, and the incoming ferry crossings are typically from islands in close proximity. Transport around the island is limited; there is no public transport such as trains or buses, therefore taxis are the easiest way to reach the port. For visitors who reside near the port area, it is regarded as a very pleasant walk, especially during the summer months. Ferry routes can be inconsistent during rainy season, and are known for running less frequently - it is worthwhile checking for live updates to ensure the crossings are still in operation.
