About
Koh Larn (Coral Island)
Koh Larn is Pattaya’s favourite island escape. Public ferries (around ฿30) leave Bali Hai Pier — at the end of Walking Street — for Na Ban Pier and Tawaen Beach; speedboats make the crossing in 15–20 minutes.
Hire a scooter or songthaew on the island to hop between beaches such as Tawaen, Samae and Tien, then catch the ferry back for sunset in the city.
Highlights
- Tawaen, Samae and Tien beaches
- Snorkelling and water sports
- Seafood lunches on the sand
- Island viewpoints
Good to know
- Ferry tickets are cash only.
- Weather can cancel sailings in the rainy season — check on the morning.
- Go early on weekends to beat the crowds.
Distances are approximate, measured by road from the hotel. Opening hours, prices and schedules can change — please check with the attraction, or ask our reception on WhatsApp before you go.
