Sunrise Beach, sprawling 800 metres along the island's east coast, is the most popular beach on Koh Lipe. As the name suggests, the turquoise Andaman Sea here is complemented by backdrops of colourful sunrise, acclaimed as one of Thailand's best. One can easily catch breathtaking angles of sunrises from the beach bungalows and bars or hop onto longtail boats sailing the sea. In Koh Lipe, the sun rises between 5:30 AM and 7 AM.
