Thai Fishing Boats, Photo set ONE

Samae Beach located on the west side of Koh Larn measures just over 500 meters in length. Samae Beach seems to be a bit cooler to me because there are more breezes coming through. The sand is a little grainy but still feels nice to the feet if walking or playing barefoot. There are many restaurants along the beach serving up almost anything your pallet would desire.

Tawaen Beach: The island’s most popular beach, bustling with activity and offering various water sports. It has plenty of restaurants resorts and essential amenities. The Koh Larn Ferry docks here which makes this beach very convienient for a day trip to the island.

Tien Beach is a mid-sized beach known for its stunning blue waters and white sand, often regarded as the best on the island. It features upscale restaurants and souvenir shops that retain a distinctly Thai flavor. The beach attracts tourists year-round, maintaining a relaxed and quiet atmosphere with visitors typically coming in smaller groups. Accessibility is convenient via speedboat, charter, or local taxi, although reaching the beach involves a brief five-minute walk from the nearest drop-off point.

Nual Beach, located at the southernmost part of Koh Larn, is a charming spot that offers all the usual amenities, including restaurants and restrooms.The beach boasts white sands and clear blue waters, perfect for swimming and snorkeling.

Tonglang Beach is a small, charming beach located next to Tawaen Beach, accessible by a short 10 to 15-minute walk from the Tawaen Beach ferry. For those with hotel bookings, pickup services from Tawaen Pier may be available.

Ta Yai Beach sits at the southernmost tip of Koh Larn, and it’s one of those places that feels a little off the map.

This isn’t one of the main tourist beaches—and that’s exactly what makes it interesting. It’s smaller, quieter, and more natural, with fewer facilities and a more untouched feel compared to the popular spots around the island.

The shoreline here is a mix of sand and rock, and the water is often clear, especially on calm days. It’s not the typical “rows of beach chairs and umbrellas” kind of place. Instead, it’s more about the scenery, the breeze, and the feeling that you’ve found a quieter corner of Koh Larn.

      Sangwan Beach is one of Koh Larn’s hidden gems—quiet, scenic, and just a short walk from Tawaen Beach.

     If you’re looking to escape the crowds without going too far, Sangwan Beach is a perfect choice. A charming wooden walkway connects it to the busier Tawaen Beach, and once you arrive, the atmosphere immediately changes. The pace slows down, the noise fades, and you’re left with a more peaceful slice of island life.
