You might already have heard about Phi Phi Island - a tropical island between Krabi and Phuket , Thailand / Asia . Almost every island in the world claims to be one of the most beautiful - a tropical island in paradise. Phi Phi is no exception! And judging by the return visitors we have – some have been coming here regularly for over 10 years – there seems to be some truth in the claim.

Since the Tsunami of December 04 the island has made an excellent recovery by now the only noticable physical change to a new comer is a reduction in available accommodation. The atmosphere is more laid back than before with local people really appreciating the business tourism brings supporting there recovery

Even the fact that 2oth Century Fox chose Phi Phi as the location for shooting Leonardo Di Caprios film “The Beach” just goes to show that this is an exceptional island! But what makes it so special? Well of course it depends on what you’re looking for. If you want 10 discotheques to choose from, jet-skis, motorbike and car-rental this will not be the right place for you. Also, there are no ´rent-a-girls or guys´ here!

What to do…Adventure..Vacation..Holiday..

Phi Phi is special. There are no roads here so there´s no need for motorbikes or cars. This makes life quieter and more relaxed than usual. But not less exciting. You can go walking, climbing, kayaking, snorkeling, deep sea fishing or scuba diving. Water skiing, windsurfing and parasailing can be done as well. Or you can just lie around on one of the many beautiful beaches. Don’t miss out on a relaxing traditional Thai massage! Whatever you do, you’ll enjoy your time here. (By the way, the water temperature is normally about 28°C!!) A perfect tropical island for your vacation/holiday in Asia - with enough adventure possiblity for everybody. Phi Phi Island in the Andaman sea between Krabi and Phuket offers it all.

Eating....

Phi Phi has numerous restaurants to choose from. Whether you prefer Italian pizza or pasta, German schnitzel, or traditional Thai food you can choose between dozens of different places. Phi Phi even has two bakeries with all sorts of cakes and other mouth-watering savories. All have one thing in common, good value for money.

Sleeping...

We understand that after spending a great day diving you'll want to relax, which is why we've teamed up with Phi-Phi.com . As the foremost Phi-Phi accommodation provider, they are ideally equipped to find suitable accommodation at discounted rates. Whatever your taste or budget, you'll be able to find what you're looking for. Please remember to book at Tonsai village (near the main peer), as this is the closest area to our diving centre.

Drinking...

There are Quite a few bars on Phi Phi so there is great nightlife if you want it places range from a grass hut on the beach with cocktails to an air conditioned irish bar .

Quite a few places show videos all day and at night. At Carlitos and Hippies´ bars you can listen to good music sitting with your feet in the sand drinking a cold beer or cocktail, and later on in the evening move up to the Reggae Pub or Tiger bar to dance until the early hours of the morning.

How to reach the tropical island...

Most visitors come over from Phuket. There are two departure times, at 8.30 am und at 1.30 in the afternoon. Boats now leave from the new port in Phuket town. Make sure you get the boat going to Tonsai bay. There is a fast catamaran leaving every day which goes to the north of the island. From here you have to take a longtail boat which can be quite bumpy! You can also come from Krabi town four times daily, Ao Nang beach at 8.30 am, Railay Beach at 8.45 and from Lanta Island at 8.00 am and 2.00 p.m.

And leaving the tropical island...

..is just as easy with morning and afternoon boats in all directions. If you´re planning on continuing your journey or not sure, only buy a one-way ticket because tickets are non-refundable and there are different boat companies on the various routes.
