Tawaen Beach

Tawaen Beach is a hidden gem located on the Lo Kan Island, also known as Coral Island, just a short boat ride away from Pattaya in Thailand. This small sandy beach is surrounded by lush forest and rolling hills, providing a picturesque view of the sea.

The area attracts locals from Bangkok and Pattaya, making it a popular destination during peak season. However, despite the crowds, Tawaen Beach remains a peaceful and serene spot to spend the day. The crystal clear water is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, and the beach restaurants offer a variety of international cuisine such as Russian and Chinese. When you're ready to relax and take in the beautiful view, head to one of the beach bars. These bars offer the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy a cold drink while overlooking the crystal clear water.

Getting to Tawaen Beach is easy and convenient, as it is located just a short boat ride away from Pattaya and Bangkok. From Pattaya, you can take a public ferry from Bali Hai Pier, which departs every hour and takes about 45 minutes to reach the island. If you prefer a more comfortable and faster option, you can also take a speedboat from Pattaya or Jomtien Beach. If you're coming from Bangkok, you can take a bus or minivan from the Eastern Bus Terminal (Ekamai) to Pattaya and then take a ferry or speedboat to Tawaen Beach. Another option is to take a direct minivan from Bangkok to the island, which will take around 2.5 hours.
