Fodor's Expert Review Bakantiang (Kantiang) Beach

The last beach before the national park on the southern tip of Koh Lanta, crescent-shaped Kantiang Beach is small but truly stunning. The fine white sands are favored by those who want to get away from the busier beaches. The village that backs the sand is the friendliest on the island, and there are a few food stalls and roadside cafés that serve some of the tastiest food on Koh Lanta. Amenities: food and drink; showers; toilets. Best for: snorkeling; sunset; swimming.
