Koh Larn (Coral Island) beaches
There are eight beautiful beaches to discover in Koh Larn from Pattaya.

Besides, you can always find beach massages available to help you loosen the knots in your muscles and even other worth-mentioning activities such as hair-braiding and the increasingly popular henna tattoo art for the ladies.
Coral Island or Pattaya
Tourists rarely see Koh Larn (Coral Island) as a resort but rather as a complement to Pattaya’s beaches, or one of its attractions. Most tourists visit Koh Larn in the form of day trips or independent travel on its shores, which are considered much cleaner urban Pattaya. For those guests wishing to stay overnight on the island, Koh Larn has a slew of amazing locations to be chosen from, depending on what beaches and areas you are in. And the exciting thing about staying in Coral Island instead of Pattaya is that you can still visit all other Pattaya Islands from here. Why not try both Pattaya and Coral Islands to have a taste of something different to switch up the experience?
