Shops & Services
For a town as culturally diverse as Old Town it’s hardly surprising that you can find a wide range of products on offer in the town’s shops. From fishing gear to Ice creams, or fresh fruit, to souvenirs, Old Town has something for everyone, whether you are staying here, or just visiting for the day.
There are many services for the towns-folk and visiting tourists too, 2 gas stations, 2 motorbike repair shops, sewing service, laundry and internet shops. Lanta Hospital is just on the outskirts of the village and there is a clinic which is open every evening in the town itself. All of the shopkeepers are very helpful and friendly and some speak a bit of English.
Please remember to dress and act appropriately when visiting shops; Bare chests and bikini tops are not appropriate and if you see that there are shoes piled outside the shop, this means you should take off yours too.
