Attraction
Walking Street, Koh Lipe
Walking Street is the narrow pedestrian lane that crosses Koh Lipe from Pattaya Beach to Sunrise Beach, and it functions as the island's high street. There are no cars on Lipe; transport is on foot or by motorbike sidecar.
Along a few hundred metres are restaurants, bars, dive shops, massage places, minimarts and travel agents, and it is where most of the island eats in the evening. Seafood grills set up outside the restaurants after dark.
It is also the practical centre of the island: the pharmacy, the ATMs and the ferry agents are here. Crossing from one coast to the other on foot takes about ten minutes.
