Fringed with coconut and pine trees and tropical rainforest, Hat Khlong Nin is many people’s ideal image of a tropical beach paradise, topped off with clear waters and powdery white sand.

Forget about wild parties, people visit Hat Khlong Nin for peace and quiet. This area of Koh Lanta Yai is perfect for swimming and most visitors spend their time on the beach, topping up their tans and cooling off occasionally with a quick swim.

However, there are a limited number of restaurants and cheap accommodation here so budget travelers and partiers may prefer to opt for one of the island’s more popular stretches of sand. But if tranquility is a must and money no object, this could be the perfect place to unwind.
