 Phi
Phi Island, located just 45 minutes by boat from Phuket, offers
a great laid back tropical lifestyle. Soak up the sun, go beach
hopping, or simply enjoy the great outdoors in some of the most
beautiful scenery in Asia!
Picture postcard perfect, with classic white sandy beaches, surrounded
by impressive limestone cliffs and sunlit crystal water, Phi Phi
actually consists of two islands, Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Ley, so
gorgeous it was used as a location for the Hollywood film, "The
Beach."
What to Do
As well as perfect beaches, the islands also offer excellent
snorkelling, great diving, challenging
game fishing and lots
of activities like rock
climbing, kayaking and local
boat trips.
There's no shortage of restaurants
either. Sample some local Thai food on
the beach with the sand between your toes, or enjoy a steak under
a starry sky. Nightlife is fairly
simple, but for the size of Phi Phi Don, is considerable with
music bars and local hotspots.
How to Get There
Tours leave from Phuket and Krabi every day, but to really appreciate
the islands, you should stay longer, if only to see the magical
sunrise and sunset. Most travel agents can arrange transport (see
general info for details) Once you're there,
getting around is simple. There are no cars, so take a short walk
or a local longtail boat from one perfect beach to the next. It's
tough!
