Sangwan Beach is a small beach, approximately 150 meters long, located on the western side of Tawaen Beach. Although it is one of the smallest beaches on Koh Larn, it is highly captivating due to its small bay-like character, surrounded by rocks and large trees. This gives the beach a significantly quieter atmosphere than Tawaen Beach. The seawater here is exceptionally clear and calm, resembling a natural swimming pool, making it ideal for tourists looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the main beaches for a simpler retreat.

In terms of history and development, the name Sangwan reflects the local lifestyle and past individuals of Koh Larn. However, what made this beach an international check-in point is the white wooden bridge built to connect the Tawaen Beach pier to Sangwan Beach. This bridge is not just a simple walkway but a beautiful coastal architectural path that blends perfectly with nature. This wooden bridge acts as a link between the bustling major tourist areas and a smaller nature conservation zone, showing a well-proportioned management of tourism space.

The main draw is the popular photography spot on the wooden bridge that stretches along the cliffs and rocks. Tourists often stop to admire the emerald green water and look back at Tawaen Beach from a distance. The beachfront of Sangwan Beach also features shallow-water coral reefs and rock formations abundant with crabs and small fish, making it a favorite spot for families and children to explore the shoreline without needing to go far for snorkeling.

Sangwan Beach is also home to cozy cafes and bars decorated in a beach club style, emphasizing an airy and coastal feel. This area is a haven for chill seekers who enjoy sipping cold drinks while listening to the waves in a private setting. Walking on the clean, soft white sand here in the late afternoon provides a true sense of relaxation that Koh Larn has to offer.

Besides its beauty, Sangwan Beach serves as a natural refuge that helps distribute tourist density from Tawaen Beach. Maintaining its peace and clean environment makes this place a small gem full of charm. If you visit Koh Larn and walk across this wooden bridge, you will find that the joy of traveling is not just at the destination, but in the scenery on both sides as you walk towards Sangwan Beach.
