Ko Phi Phi Island, Thailand
Ko Phi Phi, or also known as Phi Phi Island is a small tiny archipelago located within the Krabi Province. It is situated between the large island of Phuket and the western Andaman Sea coast of the mainland Thailand. There are a few islands in this archipelago and they are namely Ko Phi Phi Don, Ko Phi Phi Leh, Ko Phai, Bida Nok and Bida Nai.
Ko Phi Phi Don meaning "island" in the Thai language is the largest island of the group and it is actually the only island with permanent inhabitants.
Phi Phi Island is fast becoming less attractive as masses of tourist pour into this island and also due to the current construction going on on the island. However, it still retains its charm and is indeed a beautiful place to visit.
In fact everybody should visit Phi Phi island at least once in their entire lifetime. The place has a vibrant nightlife and one can find many dive shops available to choose from. The beaches in Phi Phi however are not the best Thailand
can offer as compared to other parts.
