Location and Accessibility

Phi Phi Island is located between Phuket and Krabi, making it easily accessible from both via ferry or speedboat.

From the famous Maya Bay, known for its towering limestone cliffs and turquoise waters, to hidden coves and vibrant coral reefs perfect for snorkeling and diving, the island is a haven for nature lovers. You can explore lush jungle trails, kayak through crystal-clear lagoons, or take a boat tour to discover the surrounding smaller islands like Bamboo Island and Monkey Beach.

Relaxed Yet Exciting Atmosphere

Phi Phi Island offers both serene getaways and lively spots. Relax on quiet, secluded beaches, or head to Tonsai Village, the island’s vibrant hub filled with restaurants, cafes, and bars, where the energy picks up in the evening.
