Koh Phi Phi Don and Koh Phi Phi Lay

One of the most beautiful island groups in the world, the Phi Phi Island group actually consists of six islands, lying 43 km. from the coast of Krabi . The two largest, Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Lay offer spectacular snorkeling, scuba diving and canoeing in protected coves amidst beautifully preserved coral beds.
Both islands harbor secluded white, sandy beaches as well as abundant bird, animal and sea life. You can hike the 1.2 km. nature trail on Phi Phi Don for a stunning view of the island and surrounding ocean or take a long-tail boat around Phi Phi Lay and view the famous Swiftlet bird nest caves, where villagers perch on precarious bamboo scaffolds to collect the nests, highly prized in Chinese cuisine. The Phi Phi islands may be reached easily from Jao Fah Pier in town or from Ao Nang Beach.
