Phi Phi Islands

Stunning beaches • Great parties • Boat trips

Koh Phi Phi, a cluster of 7 islands between Krabi and Phuket, offer a chance to escape from the everyday with their stunning natural beauty and vibrant atmosphere. The only inhabited island, Koh Phi Phi Don, is known for its lively beach parties and happening nightlife, while both it and its neighbours are the epitome of tropical paradise: with picture-perfect beaches, turquoise waters and plenty of beach bars to refresh you after a long day of sun-worshipping.

Why visit Phi Phi islands?

The Phi Phi islands, located in the Andaman Sea, are the stuff dream vacations are made of. Compared to bustling Bangkok and Phuket on either side, Phi Phi provides a more chilled-out, island-centric vibe…with a perfect mix of relaxation and excitement.

Koh Phi Phi is renowned for its diverse marine life and colourful coral reef, making it a top spot for snorkeling and diving. But it’s not all about what lies beneath – visitors can explore hidden lagoons, enjoy beachside bonfires, and experience the pulsating local nightlife, too.

Some travellers may wonder whether Koh Phi Phi is worth a visit at all, especially if they’ve already been to Phuket. Well, when comparing Phuket to Phi Phi islands, the former is a lot more built up, bigger…and more expensive. So for lowkey, beach bum vibes, Phi Phi might be more your style.

Top things to do in Phi Phi islands

  • Relax on Maya Bay: Famously featured in the film The Beach, enjoy the pristine white sands and turquoise waters of this iconic location. Shame Leo isn’t around to apply your sunscreen.
  • Get active underwater: Explore the coral reefs by snorkelling or diving at renowned spots like Bamboo Island and Shark Point.
  • Hike to the viewpoint: Climb the trail to Phi Phi Viewpoint for gorgeous views of the islands and great photo ops. Selfie sticks at the ready…
  • Party in Ton Sai Bay: Soak up the nightlife of Ton Sai Bay: with enough beach parties, live music and bars to keep you dancing ‘til dawn-
  • Kayaking: Rent a kayak and paddle through serene waters, discovering quiet coves and the limestone formations around Phi Phi islands.
