It is
written everywhere that when you go to Thailand you have to visit Phi Phi. Nice
beaches, palm trees everywhere, but during the last few years it started to be
popular because of the parties and movie The Beach with Leonardo di Caprio.
I was
looking forward to seeing Gill (French girl) all the morning but on the way to
Phi Phi Island I met other great people (Erica and Elizabeth), both of them
working in Milan. We had no exact plan, so we decided to spend time on Phi Phi
together. They found accommodation at Coco accommodation, there was working a girl
from Slovakia and she gave me a lot of tips of what to do on Phi Phi island in
just 2 days. The first stop was on a nice beach, we walked there for 45 minutes
from the pier, it was quite a far way, but we were there almost alone and it
was definitely the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. You can get there
also by fastest way – you can take a boat taxi. I did not use it, but price can
be of THB 300 for a ride.
As we
followed the Trip advisor, we went to the viewpoint. It took about 50 minutes
from pier and about 50 minutes from the beach where we were. At the viewpoint there
was a lady who was taking the entrance fee of THB 30. Do not forget to take
enough water. J And
at the end of the amazing day we visited the Papaya restaurant which is
recommended by everyone. After a few beers we came with Erica to the conclusion
that we would go to the peak to see the sunrise.
Me and Gill
had accommodation at a garden bungalow, we paid THB 400/person with fan and
many beats. We did not like that place but we survived, it was in the center
but not very noisy like all party places and also the price was very friendly.
