KOH PHETRA

KOH PHETRA EAST COAST
35 miles from Koh Lanta Lighthouse

Koh Phetra is a spectacular limestone ridge. The jungle-fringed cliffs are honeycombed with caves and overhangs, and this island is one of the main birds’ nest collection points in the area. Anchor near the southeast bay in 8-10 metres. Give Hin Raya, clearly visible to the east, a wide berth.

KOH PHETRA WEST COAST
35 miles from Koh Lanta Lighthouse

The west coast of Koh Phetra provides good holding in 7-8 metres along its length, but avoid the numerous fish traps. There are no long beaches on this coast, but it has numerous caves and small coves ideal for picnicking and swimming.
