Don't bother packing a swimsuit for the main shoreline; the water is murky and jet skis never stop circling. Use this strip strictly as your launch point for the $10 ferry to Koh Larn where the water is actually clear. If you find yourself stuck here, grab a cheap beer at a beach bar and lean into the chaos. Avoid the $161 local scuba packages—go to the islands for decent visibility instead.
