BEACH
Ao Lek is the place to be if you are looking for silence. The beach is rugged and surrounded by impressive nature. You can combine a relaxing time on the beach with an active nature experience. This place is ideal for visitors who want to escape the crowds and enjoy the tranquility of a less crowded island.
Here it truly feels like you are in an undiscovered place, occasionally watching a fishing boat or the ferry to Ko Phayam passing by. At high tide most of the beach is gone so you will have to relax in the grass. However, you will definitely enjoy this hidden paradise.
WHERE TO STAY
The hotels are all budget options. We recommend spending your days at Tommy’s Garden Bungalow, where the bungalows are set in a beautiful garden and all have ocean view. This stay offers a small private beach, although it is only a 5-minute walk to the main beach. Electricity is available from 6 PM until 11 PM. The other 3 lodgings are simpler, but if you like a basic experience, we recommend booking your stay at Green Banana.
Tommy’s Garden Bungalow’s restaurant offers a good variety of dishes, but it is also possible to walk to one of the other stays to enjoy your meal in their restaurant.
