Why go, and how to do it well

Perched directly on Sunrise Beach, Castaway Restaurant is the dining outlet of Castaway Resorts and offers one of Koh Lipe's more established beachfront settings. The combination of sand, sea views, and open-air dining makes it a natural stop for both resort guests and walk-in visitors exploring the island's most popular stretch of shoreline.

The menu covers a broad range of options across the day, from breakfast through to evening meals and drinks, making it a flexible choice whether travelers are looking for a morning coffee, a casual lunch between snorkeling trips, or a relaxed dinner with sunset views over the Andaman Sea. The mid-range pricing puts it in accessible territory for most travel budgets, and the kitchen caters to the international crowd typical of Koh Lipe, with both Thai and Western dishes available.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.

Use Grab for Delivery

The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
