Thursday - Railay beach

I woke up at 7.30 a.m. and I went to buy breakfast and fresh coconut shake. On the way I met a Dutch girl Joel and we went together to the pier to catch a boat. Price was written to be THB 150 with no space for bargaining. We were waiting about 30 minutes for a full boat. Basically the first boat left at 9.00 a.m.

One of the famous places in Thailand is definitely Railay beach – and it is also very crowded. We had one recommendation to pass Railay beach and go to the next beach through the rocks. There were less people and also food and drinks were cheaper. I visited a restaurant at the end of the beach, THB 60 for a big Padthai, also the waitress was very friendly.

I spent the afternoon climbing to the viewpoint and lagoon, going there with flip-flops is not the safest option but many explorers did that. The path leads through the jungle with angry monkeys. It took me about 45 minutes to go up and down.

I spent the afternoon on Cave beach, it is also very popular like Railay beach. On Cave beach you can watch climbers. One interesting thing there is Dick cave, it is because a boat with princess shipwrecked there and fisherman worshipped with handmade dicks in different sizes.

I ate dinner at the night market, a plate with mixed vegetables and rice for THB 50. I chose this place because I saw many local people there. There were also many different stands with fruit, food and spices. I loved at this market the fresh cut coconut milk for THB 25.

I received a message from the French girl and we would meet at Phiphi!
