Relax Bay is one of Koh Lanta’s most beautiful areas, secluded from the rest of the island. It has beautiful soft sand, calm crystal clear emerald green water and is normally very quiet.
While Relax Bay is easily reached from Saladan port in the north of Koh Lanta, not that many visitors come here. That’s because there’s just a handful of resorts and restaurants on this small beach, which gives it a sense of peace and seclusion.
