Saladan is the bustling tourist paradise on the northern part of Lanta.
Here you find shopping, bank offices, lovely restaurants at the water front, a diversity of dive shops, healthy pharmacies, massage parlours, optic shops and local food stalls folded up for the evening when the road turns into a pedestrian street.
Lanta Mart and Tesco Lotus Express is handy when it comes to groceries and other things needed.
