Koh Phi Phi Leh
Koh Phi Phi Leh is one Phi Phi's islands and the second largest island next to Phi Phi Don. Even if it belongs to the most popular islands in Thailand, it still remains uninhabited.
While in the island, visit Sama Bay – a place ideal for snorkelling and discovering beautiful corals and feeding tropical fishes. Explore Maya Bay and be amazed by its stunning beaches with silky soft white sand, colourful corals and exotic fishes you will never get tired of capturing photos of. Palong Bay is a must-visit place if you’re a diving enthusiast – you’ll find black-tip sharks and coral formations here. The area has strong currents so it’s advisable to go with someone who knows and is experienced with the currents. Make a stop at Viking Cave and get to see swift nests – a primary ingredient in making the yummy bird’s nest soup. Koh Phi Phi Leh needs to be included on everyone’s travel bucket list – its crystal clear waters and towering limestone formations are like postcard images that don’t disappoint. Most of the visitors come here on an organised Phi Phi boat tour while others rent long tail boats for a more customised trip.
