Klong Khong Beach
Khlong Khong Beach is a 3 kilometer stretch of beautiful soft sand fringed with palm trees in the middle of Koh Lanta. It’s well-known for having very friendly locals.
The accommodation here is nearly all family run giving a special personal touch and it’s slightly cheaper than the other beach areas.
Khlong Khong is a great place to watch the sunset and at night many bars have their own fire shows and parties. Check out The Sound Shack Bar, Fisherman’s Cottage, Where Else, The Chocolate Bar and Bubble Jungle who host parties on different nights. Some you may be able to dance till the sun comes up.
Not so many restaurants are situated on the beach but are set back in the resorts. All of them you can visit but if you want really really great food head south on the beach to Fisherman’s Cottage. For more recommendations about where to eat on Klong Khong, see our Best Restaurants And Places To Eat On Klong Khong page.

During high tide Khlong Khong’s beach and the colour of the water are amazing. However, whilst it is low tide many rocks appear in many places making it not good for swimming and slightly ugly. Luckily though most resorts have got swimming pools.

If you walk to the road you have a few scattered internet shops, a coffee shop and Thai Restaurants where you are always welcome. Please take a torch with you as this stretch of road has no lighting.

It’s easy to get to Klong Khong beach as we explain below.
Where Is Khlong Klong Beach on Koh Lanta?
 |
Khlong Klong Beach is located in the centre of Koh Lanta. It’s the third-nearest beach to Saladan Village, which is where all visitors to Koh Lanta arrive, so Khlong Klong Beach hotels have a transfer time of about 20-30 minutes from Saladan to anywhere along Khlong Khong Beach. For a more detailed map of Khlong Klong Beach itself, see our Google Map below.
As Khlong Khong Beach is smaller than neighbouring Klong Nin, it is not that developed with a handful of hotels and restaurants. (See our Best Khlong Khong Restaurants guide for more info). If you need more variety, a quick tuk tuk ride to Klong Nin provides lots more options on Klong Nin Beach itself, and there are also many places to eat along on the main road too. It’s also a short taxi or motorbike ride from Khlong Khong over to Lanta Old Town, just over the other side of Koh Lanta, which has some beautiful old Thai wooden houses and several seaside restaurants and bars to enjoy.
