Hat Khlong Nin
Beach Long sandy bay popular for snorkeling and sunsets
Klong Nin Beach on Ko Lanta, favored for low‑rise resorts, wide tidal sand for walking and calmer waters suitable for casual snorkeling.
Hat Khlong Nin is a coastal beach on the Andaman Sea coast of southern Thailand in Krabi province. It is a sandy bay used for swimming, sunbathing and low-key seaside accommodation.
The beach offers a long shoreline with shallow water at low tide and a mix of sand and rocky points suitable for short walks and basic water activities. Small restaurants and bungalow-style accommodation sit near the sand, and the setting is quieter than nearby tourist centres.
The bay has historically been a local fishing and seaside community rather than a large resort development, and tourism has expanded gradually in recent decades. The area retains a mix of local life and visitor services.
Hat Khlong Nin lies on the western coastline of southern Thailand in Krabi province, facing the Andaman Sea. The beach is one of several along this stretch of coast between more developed resort towns.
- Best time to visit: Low-rise development and wide views make late afternoon and sunset popular times for visits.
Tips for Visiting Hat Khlong Nin #
- Khlong Nin Beach is on Ko Lanta and is reached via the island's main road; use the small parking/entrance at Khlong Nin village rather than the bigger Saladan ferry area to avoid a long walk to the sand.
- Visit late afternoon for the best light and calmer seas - many day-trippers head to Ao Nang in the middle of the day while Khlong Nin stays quieter until sunset.
- Walk toward the ends of the bay rather than staying at the central strip of bars-the northern and southern stretches are noticeably quieter and reveal simple fishing village life that many visitors miss.
