Koh Lanta Three Day Itinerary

Koh Lanta Itinerary – Day 1:
After traveling to Koh Lanta from elsewhere in Thailand, it’s time to chill out. Why not use the first day to relax and go exploring the many Koh Lanta beaches. Hiring a motorbike is the best and cheapest way to get around but please be careful, the roads and Thai drivers are not so good. A restaurant for lunch with great views on to the many Islands on the East coast and delicious food is ViewPoint Restaurant. If youre not confident on a motorbike or your with your family then you can enjoy a leisurely day excursion by car taking in Koh Lanta’s stunning scenery as you travel.

After a hard day in the sun why not relax and rejuvenate your skin with an Aloe Vera Massage at Serenity Massage and Spa which can be found in Saladan village. Then head back down to one of the beaches where you can watch amazing sunsets and eat and drink in one of the beach bars.

Enjoy a stroll on Kantiang Bay

After youre fully chilled out and relaxed now its time to have some more fun. Koh Lanta offers some exciting one day tours by speedboat.
