Activities
in Koh Lanta
Apart from basking and lolling in
the midst of serene beaches, there are other activities that will
work your energy out and give you the dynamic feeling.
Snorkeling is one of the
most popular activities in Koh Lanta. Since the island possesses
many islands, each of which offers the magnificent underwater
paradise, there is a day or a few-day-trip for snorkeling on the
scattering islands. The most popular destination for snorkeling is
Koh Rok, the beautiful island within the Koh Lanta National Marine
Park. The island is famed for its abundant and colorful coral beds
and breathtaking panorama.
Diving: Koh Lanta is
closed to many popular diving sites in Andaman Sea such as Hin
Daeng-Hin Muang and Koh Ha, and etc. There are many diving shops
and diving center available on the island.
Trekking is another good
experience in exploring the green land on Koh Lanta. You can sit
on the elephant back to the viewpoint or the waterfall.
Sea kayak or canoe: This
is also the best way to explore the scenic beauty of the island.
You will closely get in touch with the nature by paddling through
the mangrove forest, the towering cliff and enter the caves which
appear only when the water level is low. You can enjoy kayaking
and canoeing in such wonderful scenery on Koh Talabeng near Lanta.
Fishing: Three different
kinds of fishing trip are offered by private long tail boat:
half-day, full day and night fishing. The usual catch is Barracuda
and White and Red Snapper among other sorts. |
