Tien is a Ko Lan beach that is quieter than the main ones — for people who came to sit and swim rather than to do things.
The feel of it
Noticeably less crowded than Tawaen. There are restaurants and deckchairs, with fewer choices, which is the trade anyone choosing this beach has already accepted.
Getting there
Take a songthaew or a motorbike from the pier, agreeing the fare and a pickup time up front.
Worth knowing
- Bring cash; card acceptance is limited
- Ask the deckchair price before sitting down
- Leave time for the last ferry
