Koh Lanta

We decided to not do island hopping but just stay in one place instead. Our choice was Koh Lanta as we hoped it wouldn't be too crowded as other islands. And it turned out to be a great choice. We are staying in a bungalow very close to the beach with great neighbours and a great host. So we intermittently take a trip to surrounding islands and have lazy days.

The first trip we made was to 4 small surrounding islands whose names you never heard. There we did some snorkeling, saw bats but mostly enjoyed some great beaches with perfect water. One was a secret beach to which you had to swim through an 80m long, pitch black tunnel. Sounds more adventurous than it is if you share tunnel and beach with like 200 Thai kids being there in the same time ;).Read more
