Phi Phi Island, The spectacular Phi Phi Islands are two islands; Phi Phi Le and Phi Phi Don, of which only Phi Phi Don is inhabited. These idyllic islands are easily accessible from the mainland, with boats leaving from Krabi. There are also plenty of boats that leave from Phuket.

Phi Phi Le is only six square kilometres in area and is predominantly made up of sheer cliffs, with a number of caves and hidden coves. One of the most interesting is the Viking cave, with paintings dating back over 400 years ago that resemble Viking long boats adorning its walls. The cave also contains the famous sea-swifts nests, of birds-nest soup fame. The island is uninhabited, mainly because of the priceless birds nests, but many boats from Phi Phi Don regularly take the short jaunt over to visit the cave and the island's secluded beaches.

Phi Phi Don, 2 km to the north is the larger of the two at 28 square kilometres. All accommodation is on this island, based mainly around Ton Sai Bay, where all the incoming boats dock. The bay is a long curving stretch of white sandy beach, wedged between two limestone peaks. Phi Phi Don has an abundance of fine tropical beaches along its southern and eastern shores, with plenty of limestone karsts offering spectacular views over the islands.

The island is still inhabited by Chao Lay (sea gypsies), mainly on the western, unspoiled reaches of the island.
