KLONG KHONG BEACH (HAD KLONG KHONG)
If you drive south from Long Beach, Koh Lanta, about 2 km later you’ll come to Klong Khong, with a quiet dusty roadside and around 3km of sandy beach. While the sand is good, the water is quite rocky. Its the rockiest beach on Koh Lanta – in fact there is just 1 small swimming area in the middle of the beach.
This is one reason that Klong Khong hasnt been developed by big resorts (while other Koh Lanta beaches have), so you’ll find that most resorts and bungalow operations are small, cozy ones run by local Koh Lanta families
In days gone by this was the most backpacker friendly beach, with a huge amount of cheap beach huts available. Now some of those places have upgraded to concrete and aircon, you can still find some great bargains here
The feel of the beach is very laid back, due to the lack of development here. So even if you’re not staying on the beach, its a great place to come and hang out
