Lanta Islands - untouched part of Thailand





Ko Lanta Yai. The name of the island that is off the western coast of the infamous Krabi island and probably best known for it's clear clean waters on it's white beaches. The Lantai Yai island is actually the largest of the over 50 small secluded group of islands; hence, Lanta IslandS.

What's accommodating about the Lanta islands is that there are all sorts of budget travels u can choose from, with the cheapest u can find around to the top notch ones, which r of course super exquisite. When i mainly go there i just go to the ordinary ones but from time to time there r special rates available. There's lots to choose from, check out http://www.tourismthailand.org/7wonders/ for a handful of selections

An activity that i must suggest for all visitors is fishing, u'll see a lot of fishing boats known as the 'long tail' boats that the local fisherman use. It's a great experience, especially if u go with ur friends.

Oh yeah, and of course snorkeling and diving are main attractions of these islands as well. Many diving schools use the Krabi area as the place to practice or do professional diving because of the nice corals and clear beaches.

Give it a try!
