Getting There and Away
<p>Koh Lanta is an island in Krabi province, Thailand, well-connected to the mainland and other islands. The closest major transport hub is Krabi International Airport (KBV), with Phuket International Airport (HKT) and Trang Airport (TST) also serving as entry points. On Koh Lanta itself, Saladan Pier is the primary arrival and departure point for ferries and speedboats.</p>
