Phi Phi Islands

Removed from Unnamed collection

The Phi Phi Islands are some of the most beautiful gems in Southeast Asia. Just a quick 45-minute ride by speedboat or a leisurely 90-minute ferry ride from either Phuket or Krabi, these idyllic islands offer the quintessential tropical escape. With their classic sandy beaches, breathtaking rock formations, and shimmering turquoise waters brimming with vibrant marine life, it feels like stepping into paradise.

This enchanting archipelago consists of six islands. The two main ones are Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Leh. Phi Phi Don, the larger and inhabited island, draws countless visitors eager to relax on its stunning shores. Meanwhile, the smaller, uninhabited Phi Phi Leh boasts breathtaking bays and beaches, including the iconic Maya Bay. This bay gained fame as the filming location for "The Beach," starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Aside from its cinematic allure, Phi Phi Leh offers some of the best snorkeling and diving spots you'll ever experience. The underwater world here is like a living aquarium, with schools of fish, vibrant corals, and even the occasional sea turtle making an appearance. Whether you're lounging on the beach or exploring beneath the waves, the Phi Phi Islands promise an unforgettable adventure.
