Ko Lamphu is situated in the Tapi River, which flows through Surat Thani. The island offers a serene and picturesque environment, surrounded by the river’s calm waters. It’s a great place to escape the bustling city and enjoy some tranquility in nature.
We stopped there on our road trip into Surat Thani province in February 2023, it was a welcome break from the City and a good way to get some informal exercise.
As a river island, Ko Lamphu may offer activities such as boat tours, kayaking, or simply relaxing by the riverside. During our walk round it we were struck by how much/many recreational facilities there were actually on the Island. Ranging from ball game courts, to outdoor gym equipment!
