Lanta Yai Island The District and National Park offices are located here. This island is mountainous and rugged, especially near the southern tip. Some beaches are gravelly, and others have fine white sands.
Kon Yao Yai Clans of Chao Ley, or sea gypsies are resident on this island and they preserve many of their ancient customer and ceremonies - e.g. the setting of ceremonial boats adrift to bring good luck and prosperity on the full moon nights of the sixth and eleventh months. This and other features of their lives are open to view.
Taleng Beng Island This island is in some ways a smaller version of Phi Phi Ley: Made of limestone, honeycombed with caves and inhabited by the same swifts whose nests are made into soup. Small beaches and caves appear when the tide ebbs.
Hah Islands A group of five islands; Hah Yai Island has a field of grass on its ridgeline. Another island resembles a sailboat in shape; one has water that passes from one side to another beneath it. There is some coral in shallow waters.
