Turtle Beach Restaurant — Restaurant in Ko Lanta Yai

The atmosphere and milkshakes here are amazing!! So worth the visit for the Mars and Snickers milkshakes alone! Lovely location - right on the beach. However, we ordered vegan patties on our burgers and they were really bad. We couldn’t eat them - and it was expensive too! The owner asked why we’d removed the patties and we were polite and said we were new to being veggie so were still figuring out what we liked.
