Ko Lanta district encompasses the whole archipelago, including Ko Lanta Yai, Ko Lanta Noi, and several smaller islets. This administrative area is a gateway to Mu Ko Lanta National Park, which protects pristine beaches and coral reefs on islands like Koh Ngai and Koh Muk. The district offers diverse experiences: from the lively bars of Saladan village to the quiet shores of Koh Jum. Divers flock here for sites like Hin Daeng and Hin Muang, known for whale sharks and soft corals. The district's blend of national park, diving, and laid-back island life makes it a comprehensive destination for nature lovers.
