Ko Lanta Honeymoon, Thailand

Ko Lanta is the ideal honeymoon destination for couples wishing to ‘get away from it all’ in a secluded and serene island environment.

Things to do and see

Here you can choose from several soft white-sand beaches that lie along a 25km-long stretch of the west coast, separated by picturesque jungle-clad promontories and linked by a paved coastal road. Should you tire of lazing on the beach it’s easy to go snorkelling, diving, kayaking, windsurfing, sailing or fishing.

Inland, explore the densely forested hills on foot, motorcycle, car, bicycle or elephant. Along the way, experience the local culture and customs of the indigenous population, a mix of Muslim, Chinese and a clan of Chao Ley (sea gypsies). You can even brush up your Thai cooking or Thai boxing skills with a lesson or two.

Accommodation

Or play ‘Robinson Crusoe’ for a day or longer on one of the secluded beaches that lie to the south of the island.

To the south of Koh Lanta lies the islands of Ko Ngai, Ko Kradan and Ko Mook, which offer total seclusion, gorgeous beaches and great snorkelling.
