The 10 Best Activities & Tours in Koh Lipe, Ranked
This list is mostly boat people: island-hopping operators and dive centers, several of them working out of Walking Street, with a couple of places you actually go rather than book, like Ko Hin Ngam and the Chado Cliff viewpoint over on Ko Adang. Pura Vida Diving is the one I'd point at first, and it tops the ranking.
The 10 Best Hotels in Koh Lipe, Ranked
Nearly every place here sits right on the sand, and most are bungalow resorts rather than big hotels, spread across Sunrise, Pattaya and Bundhaya beaches. Ten Moons Lipe Resort is the one I'd flag.
The 10 Best Nightlife Spots in Koh Lipe, Ranked
This is mostly beach bars and jungle-themed drinking dens, with a good few sitting right on Walking Street and staying open into the early hours. Zodiac See Sun takes the top slot, though Jungle Bar and Sand Bar are the ones to hit if you want cheap drinks. Nearly everything here is mid-range.
The 10 Best Restaurants in Koh Lipe, Ranked
Walking Street does a lot of the heavy lifting here, with three of the top five sat along it, and the rest split between cheap noodle shops and cafés that locals actually eat at. Elephant takes the top spot, though the clifftop sunset bar is the one people rave hardest about.
The 10 Best Spas & Wellness Spots in Koh Lipe, Ranked
This is mostly small independent massage shops rather than polished resort spas, with late opening hours that suit a sunset-to-midnight island rhythm. Kamon Puh Massage takes the top spot, though Castaway Yoga is the odd one out and the one I'd name, a beachfront studio running morning sessions on Sunrise Beach.
The 6 Best Islands Near Koh Lipe, Ranked
Six islands around Koh Lipe, from Koh Adang across the channel to the snorkeling stops at Koh Rawi and Koh Hin Ngam and the small islands you can kayak to from Sunrise Beach.
The 7 Best Beaches in Koh Lipe, Ranked
Sunrise Beach is the best beach on Koh Lipe and the best for swimming, Pattaya Beach is where the restaurants and the boats are, and Sunset Beach is the quiet one for the evening. Seven beaches, all within walking distance of each other, with what each one is like.
