Ko Lanta- I was told that the beaches here are peaceful and nice! Peaceful is the right word for it! Ko Lanta is covered with long long stretches of beaches for what seems to be miles and miles long! I can't imagine this place ever being crowded!! Having said that, if you really need some R&R then come visit but if not, then move on to Krabi or something..I actually got a little bored and lonely in Lanta as it was that peaceful here!

Th downtown street of Lanta is made up of two dusty streets- like a T almost! Food stalls selling mango sticky rice for 30 baht ($1 us dollar) and tourist shops make up one of the streets while restaurants and shops seem to make up the other. When you get off the ferry, you are greeted my throngs of people trying to get you to stay at their place. Be prepared as it's a bit overwhelming!!

Lanta- if you want to be lonely...
