Coral Island (Koh Larn)

Just 45 minutes by speedboat from Pattaya's shores, Koh Larn offers a refreshing escape with pristine turquoise waters and powder-soft beaches framed by coconut palms. The island features three main beach areas—Naresuan Beach for families, Samae Beach for water sports enthusiasts, and quieter Tien Beach for those seeking solitude. Snorkeling directly off the shore reveals vibrant coral gardens and tropical fish, making it an affordable alternative to Thailand's more remote islands.
