    The viewpoint is a must do if you stay on Phi Phi island.
    It’s a walk up to around 300m level, the first part is stair climbing and the second part a steep way up to the viewpoint.

    50bath for viewpoint 1+2 is cheap.

    The view from point 2 is great and you will not forget.

    Start as early in the morning as possible because the heat will become hotter and hotter.

    I started at 8am and needed around 55min up to viewpoint 2.I have drunken in total 2l water and it’s definitely not easy.

    Viewpoint 3 was closed and is only a little bit higher than point 2.

    Soft powdery sand, clear waters but very crowded beach. It is one of the biggest islands in Phuket/Krabi. One can also stay at the hotels on the beach to enjoy the night life on the island.

    Clean beach, mesmerizing view. When we visited Thailand in November'23 end it rained all 5-6 days. So I couldn't see the sunset but still the view in the rain was good. Fortunately there were no stormy waves on that day of the tour.

    This was one of the first stop on a four island private tour o a longboat. Utter bliss, Very few people when we got there and we could spend as much time as we wanted, No rushing off with a group.
    This was two little islands separated by a sandbar. You could walk from one end to the other. The water was clear as expected and it was shallow so you could walk out a bit. The beauty of the place has to be seen to be believed.

    I’m here for the quiet and the remoteness of the beach. The water is blue the sand white and it’s off peak season and so very quiet. Feeling like it was too quiet ( I don’t do relaxing very well!) I found out how to get to the next beach down (Loh Ba Kao Bay) without the 40 min walk; take a little motorbike with sidecar from a tiny hut right at the south end of Laem Tong beach; to find it walk on the beach right to the end of the Phi Phi Holiday Resort there’s a rocky/sandy small walkway/ road that goes to the right on a 45deg angle. Walk the path another 30 seconds and you should see some Thai men in old wooden stand waiting with their motorbike with side car. I suggested 100ThaiBaht which was a yes, so I imagine you could bargain to 50TB if you want to bargain.
    It was a fun ride along a well made and cleared concrete track, views of sea and mangroves and over a lovely locals bridge. I asked to be taken to supermarket. There were a couple of other such vehicles there, waiting.
    I arranged for the man to come get me in 1.5 hrs to take me back to Laem Tong.
    The village behind the SAiii Phi Phi Village Resort looks like they do it tough in low season - the entire beach is used by the Resort and is private so no other reason for tourists to come to this beach - the villagers are at the mercy perhaps then of the guests of this resort to venture out … I bet they’d get the food and massages at half the price though … that’s what I like to.
    Stock up on your water, snacks, creams at the mini supermarkets!

    Back at Laem Tong, enjoy a beach almost to yourself!
    Eat at the place right next to Erawan Resort, packed at night, right on beach, cheap and sooo good any time of day- kitchen right there in the hut.

    Barely any boats - quiet and a real paradise is this Laem Tong Beach. I hope I can handle the quiet!

    Nice clean sandy beach. If you walk towards the Centara resort end of the beach at 9.30pm you can watch the fire show . If you walk the other end of the beach you can take a long tail boat to Railay and other island hopping.

    Arrived here early in the morning as not many people were here it was quite delightful. It soon filled up! Bring your own snacks as hotel only guests it would appear for restaurants!

    If you wish to relax and enjoy crystal clear water with powder white sand, this is the place!!! Far away from the crowds! In my opinion the best beach in phi phi. Staying at Paradise Pearl resort located there, the absolute bliss!!! The only thing you cannot avoid is the noice from the long tail boats that are coming and go!!!

    This trail took about an hour. You walk along the pathway/beach at Ao Nang and it ends where the monkey trail starts. I only saw monkeys on the beach before starting the trail. The trail winds along the rock face and you definitely have to be cautious and watch your steps. You are walking on uneven boards that are unevenly placed apart and the bamboo railings are not that sturdy or secure. Some areas are very steep climbing the wooden steps. If you are scared of heights or have dizzy spells, do not go on this hike. It ends at another beach that is private with a resort. You have to sign a guest book when you arrive and leave.
