“Take photos with leaning coconut trees, stroll on the wooden bridge along the cliffs, enjoy views of the Gulf of Thailand and Koh Samui, swim in the shallow water, and relax to watch the sunset.”

Sri Kantang Beach, or "Leela Beach," is a secluded beach on the south side of Koh Phangan. It's ideal for those looking for peace and quiet, yet easily accessible from Haad Rin. With its leaning coconut trees, clear waters, and fine white sand, it is one of the most romantic sunset spots on the island.

Hidden Charm:
The beach has a unique character with its rocky outcrops and hills, giving the beach area a high degree of privacy. The seawater is as calm as a natural pool, and the color of the water changes with the sunlight, from emerald green to clear blue.

A Romantic Walkway:
The wooden bridge running along the rocks from the resort to the beach is a spot to admire the most beautiful sunset on the island. The warm evening light hits the wooden bridge and the water, creating an atmosphere perfect for couples and photographers.

Activities and Fun:

  • Walk and relax
  • Take photos with leaning coconut trees and the wooden bridge
  • Snorkel around the rocks on the west side
  • Watch the sunset from the end of the wooden bridge on the south side

Convenience:
There are not many resorts and good restaurants, making the beach uncrowded. The shallow water is suitable for children and those who want to swim safely.


How to Get There
  • On foot: From Haad Rin Pier or Haad Rin village, about 10–15 minutes (through the resort)
  • By car/motorcycle: Drive to the southernmost tip of the island. There is a sign to the right leading to Sri Kantang Beach and the resort. The concrete road provides easy access.

Travel Tips
