Ko Larn

[partyanimal 0]

Last trip I had a great time on Ko Samet. Myn upcomming trip is very short, just one week, so i was thinking of Ko Larn as a quick alternative. Could do it as a daytrip, but think maybe it'd be better to stay overnight.

 

I'm finding it difficult to find a website or even an email address for a resort on Ko Larn. I see "Ko Larn Resort" listed on some websites with no info.

 

Have any of you actually stayed overnight on Ko Larn?

 

Anyone have any hotel email addresses or even know if there is lodging on the island?

 

Does the ferry leave from the old pier or the new pier? Does the ferry stop at just one beach? When I get off the ferry which beach should I go to?

 

Any info appreciated.

The ferry leaves from the new pier about 5 times a day and arrives at the main town which isn't much. There are baht bus taxis and motorbike taxis to take you to the beach you desire. Hub posted a website on Koh Larn about a month ago.

Thinking that daytrips might be better. Also thinking that if there's a really cheap hotel that I could rent a room in the afternoon to keep my backpack or an afternoon shag. That's if I caught the 10AM ferry. But that's wishful thinking, nooon ferry is probably more likely.

 

Think I'll try to get over there my first full day rent a moped and scope it out.

 

Any favorite beaches?

 

Is the way to the new pier just going south on walking street and keep hugging the shoreline?

Hi, partyanimal

Went to Ko Larn 2weeks ago 20B single on the boat from the new pier.

Got the 1200Hrs boat out and paid 30B for the taxi to beach, got the 1800Hrs boat back to Pattaya. Great day out and the TG loved it.

Cheers Doug.
