This beach is located in the very south of island the road to the beach is not difficult but if you come back after sunset it would be so dark, I went there on late April the wave is too high for me 🌊😆 and nearby the beach also have 2-3 monkey 🐒 and monkey here try to steal your food and open your bag either so be careful and keep your things in eyes 👀 close to the beach 🏖️

Beautiful beach especially at sunset. Just have to mind the monkeys. They usually mind their own business as long as you don’t carry food with you.

Not much going on and a nice view, but unfortunately those are the only plus points. The beach is completely littered, the generalization is plastic waste, broken glass bottles and other dirt. It's an unbelievable shame how this beach can be littered.

An absolutely gorgeous beach! Bamboo Beach is beautifully quiet and rarely visited - a real insider tip on Koh Lanta. The fine sand, the turquoise water and the location right next to the jungle make the beach a little paradise. Just keep an eye on your belongings - curious monkeys like to stop by and look for snacks. As long as you don't leave anything edible lying around in the open, this isn't a problem. Perfect for relaxing, swimming and enjoying – we will definitely be back!
