Location & what to see
Ko Lipe is a small island in the Andaman Sea, off the southern coast of Thailand in Satun province, and it is reached by boat. Sang Chan Hostel is in the village area, with the beach about 230 m away and the Koh Lipe Ferry Terminal 300 m away, so the pier is close enough to reach on foot from the hostel. From the hostel, the beach, the village and the pier are all a few hundred metres away. The village streets nearby have small shops and cafés, and the pace of the island is set by the boats that come and go from the pier.
Sunrise Beach is 450 m from the hostel, while Karma Beach and Sunset Beach are close by on the island. Koh Adang, a neighbouring island, lies 6.1 km away and is reached by boat from Ko Lipe. The nearest airport is Trang Airport, 118.9 km away on the mainland, so the trip ends with a boat crossing.
A typical day can start with a swim at Sunrise Beach and a walk to the other beaches, followed by a boat trip to Koh Adang if the sea is calm. Boat trips can be affected by rough seas, especially in the rainy months, so plan the day around the sea conditions.
