Koh
Larn is a wonderful little island in the Gulf of Thailand. Koh Larn
is located about 7km off the coast of Pattaya Beach of which is about
two hours drive south of Bangkok. The Island is about 4km long and
about 2km wide and has about a thousand residents most of whom live
in the main village called Naban. Most of the people that live here also work and
go to school on the island. Any of the everyday necessities are here
including a police force and a small medical facility. There are about
six beaches on the island that boast white sand and clear blue water.
Koh Larn is a lush green tropical island which has an abundant amount
of rain fall each year during monsoon. The terrain is mostly mountainous
which is covered in most part with heavy vegetation, jungle if you
will. Monkeys naturally inhabit the island as well as other wildlife.
Infrastructure here in most part consist of narrow roadways covered with brick pavers.
There are many activities here for visitors to enjoy, some include para sailing, snorkeling, jet ski, banana boat, swimming in tropical waters, and there is even a shooting range located here. Because the island is mountainous there are also some spectacular views for those that like to take a few snapshots. Koh Larn is also very suited for bicycling and hiking, many bicycling events have been held here. Many movie production companies have used the island for movie shoots. There are many accommodations that will make you feel right at home. Then there are the places to eat many right on the beach, serving up fresh, catch of the day sea food. Many visitors come to stay their entire vacation on Koh Larn and return year after year, kind of a home away from home for some.
