About Ko Lao Ya Nai
Ko Lao Ya Nai belongs to the three-island Lao Ya group in Ko Chang Tai Subdistrict. Klang and Nok are separate smaller islands extending to its south. Tourism information often uses Lao Ya for the group as a whole, so distinguish the island from a resort or boat itinerary with the same name.
Access is by boat in the Ko Chang area. Confirm the current landing point, accommodation availability and transfer arrangement directly before travelling. Beach and coral excursions depend on sea conditions. A booking for Lao Ya should specify which island it serves and how the return transfer is organised; older journey times and facilities lists should not be treated as current guarantees.
