A Chao Le (sea gypsy) fishing community of stilt houses near Lanta's southeast tip, with longtails pulled up on the mud and a view across to the outer islands.
Practical
Wikivoyage lists it as a Chao Le community on stilts. Visit respectfully, ideally by road from the Old Town; the shore is shallow and muddy at low tide. Position from the Wikivoyage listing.
