Ko Lanta Yai is long, thin island. The ferry docks at the northern-most end of the island, known as Ban Saladan ( Saladan Town ).

From Saladan, a drive down to the south will take approximately an hour with a distance of 30km. All nine beaches are located on the west coast of the island, running north to south. The east coast is more mountainous and covered with rainforest. The road ends at the office in Ko Lanta's Marine National Park , where the islands' recognizable lighthouse is located.

The national park area with its' two curved, private beaches are simply wonderful, and well worth a visit!
