The Krabi province of Thailand is home to some of the most captivating islands in Thailand, and Koh Lanta qualifies as one such paradise to explore. It is also considered a child-friendly vacation destination for adults and children alike.

Getting to Koh Lanta

Reaching Avani+ Koh Lanta Krabi Resort for a laid-back vacation on a Thai island will not be too far or difficult. In fact, travellers will have the convenience of choosing the best option out of speedboat, ferry and minivan from resorts in Krabi to Koh Lanta. Due to the absence of an airport in Koh Lanta, the nearest airport is in Krabi, from which you may select a mode of transportation to reach the golden sand beaches.

Beach Visits

Koh Lanta beaches are known for their shallow beaches that are deemed safe for children. Parents can enjoy a stroll along the tranquil beaches as kids build sandcastles on the shore. Koh Lanta beaches are also famed for their splendid sunsets and also offer a peek into the marine life of the area, especially the Sand Bubbler Crabs that create geometric designs on sandy beaches.

Dining

Explore fine dining and street dining in Koh Lanta with your family. While some of the high-end restaurants catering to tourists are expensive and may not seem worth the price, travellers are advised to pay visits to local eateries that serve in large portions for reasonable prices. If you fancy a little snack along the way, the Monday, Wednesday, Friday or Weekend markets will serve some of the best Thai snacks.

Visiting an Animal Welfare

A visit to an animal welfare will undoubtedly improve the quality of your family vacation, especially for the children, as they explore the animal kingdom. At the Lanta Animal Welfare, your kids will have the time of their lives, running, cuddling and playing with cats and dogs, and guess what? The entrance is completely free!
