All beaches are equipped with restrooms, showers, and food services, ensuring that visitors can enjoy their time comfortably. Whether you're looking for adventure or a peaceful retreat, Koh Larn has the perfect beach for you!
Samae Beach located on the west side of Koh Larn measures just over 500 meters in length. Samae Beach seems to be a bit cooler to me because there are more breezes coming through. The sand is a little grainy but still feels nice to the feet if walking or playing barefoot. There are many restaurants along the beach serving up almost anything your pallet would desire.
Tawaen Beach: The island’s most popular beach, bustling with activity and offering various water sports. It has plenty of restaurants resorts and essential amenities. The Koh Larn Ferry docks here which makes this beach very convienient for a day trip to the island.
Tien Beach is a mid-sized beach known for its stunning blue waters and white sand, often regarded as the best on the island. It features upscale restaurants and souvenir shops that retain a distinctly Thai flavor. The beach attracts tourists year-round, maintaining a relaxed and quiet atmosphere with visitors typically coming in smaller groups. Accessibility is convenient via speedboat, charter, or local taxi, although reaching the beach involves a brief five-minute walk from the nearest drop-off point.
Nual Beach, located at the southernmost part of Koh Larn, is a charming spot that offers all the usual amenities, including restaurants and restrooms.The beach boasts white sands and clear blue waters, perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
Tonglang Beach is a small, charming beach located next to Tawaen Beach, accessible by a short 10 to 15-minute walk from the Tawaen Beach ferry. For those with hotel bookings, pickup services from Tawaen Pier may be available.
Tay Yai Beach: This beach is less crowded, making it ideal for couples or anyone seeking a serene environment.
Famous for its breathtaking scenery, it’s a great getaway for those looking to escape the crowds.
Tawaen Beach of Koh Larn
Tawaen Beach is by far the most developed and the most visited beach on Koh Larn. On any given day by my estimate there are well over three thousand visitors, come to this beach. On the weekend that number may double for many people come down from Bangkok to enjoy a weekend of relaxation on the island far removed from their city life. This is also a place that attracts international tourist from all over the globe. Most any major language can be understood here to a certain degree, the people that work here cater to international travelers on a daily basis. Most of the restaurants will specialize in one or two types of international cuisine, one may specialize in Russian food whereas another may serve Chinese and so on. All the activities can be found here, Jet Ski, Banana Boat and more. There are several resorts here if you would like to stay at Tawaen Beach for the night, have a look at my Resorts page for more information. Enjoy!
Tawaen beach has a 7-11 for snacks, drinks or some sun block if you need it. There is also a Cafe Amazon as well, but there are also many other coffee houses that serve up very good coffee too.

This is the walkway to Twaen Beach from the main pier. Just ahead on the right there is a wooden bridge way to a small beach you may want to check out.
As you are walking to Twaen beach on the walkway you will see this wooden bridge way on the right. It goes to a small beach that is worth a look. There is a nice photo op spot along this bridge way.
Tropical, yes, this is early January and the temp is about C 26 degrees with a nice gentile breeze. The ocean temp about C 24 degrees, ahhhh. No snow forecast for today. The gentle slope of the beach is perfect for wadding into the ocean.
Just one of the many vendors along Tawean beach they sell just about anything you can think of here. Besides swim wear, sunglasses, hats and tee-shirts, many beautiful handcrafted items can be found many made right on the island. I found the prices to be a real bargain.
Sun worshipers from all over the world come here to gather the morning rays. When they return to their homeland they get to brag about a newly acquired tan. Be sure to bring sun block you can easily get too much sun.
