Koh Larn Island (Coral Island) - Thailand

Koh Larn is a wonderful little island situated near Pattaya. We have many options to reach the island, we can hire a speed boat or we can board a ferry which runs every 30 minutes from south Pattaya. For ferry ride they will charge 30 baht per person and it will take around 45 minutes to reach island. The ferry ride will provide you some beautiful view of Pattaya. Koh Larn has six main beaches and a few smaller beaches for visitors to enjoy. All the beaches are of white sand and clear blue waters.
