Sunset in the beach. Kantiang Bay. Koh Lanta. Thailand. Asia. Kantiang Bay is most famous as the location of Pimalai, Koh Lanta’s first luxury hotel. There are now several other hotels, resorts and villas on Kantiang Bay which we recommend. Click on any link to view more photos, read guest reviews and book online. Kantiang Bay creates a perfect crescent shape to keep the Andaman Sea flat calm with crystal clear water. Looking up from the beach beyond the road, you will see the mountain range which provides breathtaking scenery around the bay. Even on a busy day you may find yourself sharing the beach with only a handful of people. It’s a perfect choice for honeymooners and couples who want peace and quiet and get away from the masses. Ko Lanta is technically called Ko Lanta Yai, the largest of 52 islands in an archipelago protected by the Mu Ko Lanta Marine National Park. Almost all boats pull into Ban Sala Dan, a dusty two-street town at the northern tip of the island. Once the domain of backpackers and sea gypsies, Lanta hasn't just gentrified, it's morphed almost completely from a luscious southern Thai backwater into a midrange getaway for French, German and Swedish package tourists who come for her divine beaches (though the northern coast is alarmingly eroded) and nearby dive spots, Hin Daeng, Hin Muang and Ko Ha. Within eyeshot of Phi-Phi, Lanta remains far more calm and real, however, and effortlessly caters to all budget types. It's also relatively flat compared to the karst formations of its neighbours, and laced with good roads, so is easily explored by motorbike.
