Kantiang Bay
อ่าวกันเตียง
A crescent-shaped bay encircled by mountains in the south, often called one of Lanta's most beautiful beaches, with bright blue water and fine sand.
Kantiang Bay lies in the southwest of Lanta, surrounded on three sides by green hills. Its crescent-shaped beach is about 1 km long, with clear, bright blue water that is ideal for swimming and snorkelling. At the southern end of the bay is a traditional Muslim fishing village that has kept its old character, and several upscale resorts are built into the hillside. The overall atmosphere is peaceful. A viewpoint on the mountain road on the north side of the bay overlooks the whole bay. It's about 30 minutes by motorbike from Long Beach, and the road has many steep, winding sections.
