Koh Phi
Phi consists of two islands situated about 40km from Krabi; Phi Phi Lei and Phi
Phi Don. Phi Phi Don is arguably one of the most popular tourist destinations
along the Andaman Coast, especially during the peak months from December to
March, when many tourists visit. Even so, the island retains much of its
original beauty
The islands of Thailand are the stuff of castaway fantasies. White sand, rustic-chic beach shacks, a hammock gently swaying between two palm trees as a turquoise sea laps at the shore… But each is quite distinct from the next,with its own characteristics; and there are dozens to choose from - so which is the right one for you? Here,Nell McShane Wulfhart selects one for every occasion, whether you want to party til dawn, learn to dive, eat the best Thai food or escape from the world on a secluded, romantic break
If you're going on holiday on your own or with single
friends then Koh Phi Phi might just be the island for you. In recent years it
has been almost entirely rebuilt after the tsunami devastated it, with smarter
places to stay than ever. With a reputation for good times and lots of
activities on offer(diving, snorkelling,cliff-jumping,boat trips to Koh Phi Phi
Ley (pictured),among other islets, where The Beach was filmed), Koh Phi Phi
draws a young, stylish, energetic crowd with a degree of sophistication, ready
to relax or to party (though not the hardcore ravers of Pha Ngan).
Days are spent sunning
Viking Cave is one of the most
notable sites on Koh Phi Phi Leh. Located at the bottom of a tall limestone
cliff on the northeastern side of the island, it takes roughly 30 minutes to
get there by long-tail boat from Tonsai Bay (the main pier in Phi Phi Islands).
Known as Tham Phaya Nak in Thai, Viking Cave owes its name to the paintings
found on the eastern southern walls of the cave: they represent various types
of boats, including what resembles a Scandinavian drakkar. These paintings are
certainly quite recent, and were possibly realised by sailors taking shelter in
the cave during a storm.
Swimming or exploring
Driving in
Phi Phi is one of the prime activities in Phi Phi
and the island counts a large number of serious and professional PADI dive
centers dispensing courses – from Discover Scuba Diving to Dive master – and
day trips to the many world-class dive sites available in and around Phi Phi
waters. Amongst the most notable dive sites of the area, Shark Point, Anemone Reef
and the King Cruiser Wreck are located to the west between Phi Phi Islands and
Phuket; Maya Bay, Koh Bida Nok & Nai are located on and near Koh Phi Phi
Leh; all of them can be reached in less than 40 minutes from Koh Phi Phi Don,
and offer superb underwater fauna and flora
Evenings are spent shopping and hanging out at beach bars,
Watching Thai dancers juggle with fire and dancing until the small hours with new friends.
Apache
Beach Bar
Apache Beach Bar is the second largest open-air disco-like venue on Loh Dalum beach. Pretty quiet at the end of afternoon it starts to get frantic and crowded after 21:00 with young folks looking for party until late. A wooden stage surrounded by plastic chairs is set on the beach offering fire dancers to perform their show for the audience.
