I really love Ko lan lying some 7.5 kilometers off Pattaya Thailand, Ko lan is a 45 minute ferry ride or some 10 minutes by speed boat. The Island measuring some 2 kilometers by 5 kilometers offers several white sandy beaches with it's off shore coral reefs which can be viewed from the glass bottomed boats or snorkeling, jet skiing facilities are also available. We had the opportunity to visit Ko Ian a couple of years ago and it was fantastic.

Thanks tay,
For giving information about Thailand.

If wanna visit some cave or diving in the beach, beware with the rocks. If you wanna do backpacking, keep your wallet in a safe place

I guess you're there already so don't know if you'll be checking the forum for recommendations, but do head north if you can.  Beautiful landscape, elephant back safari's, great cookery courses, and away from the classic island stuff (if you can bear it!). 

Kind regards, Olly
