ThailandKo Yao YaiKo Yao Yai, or "Big Long Island" in Thai, is only 30km from tip to tip despite its ideas of grandeur, and sits in the middle of Phang Nga Bay roughly halfway between Phuket and Krabi. Overview Trip ideas Experiences Places to visit Best time to visit Accommodation This long, narrow island is one of Thailand’s quietest beach destination offerings, avoiding the crowds of partiers that some of its more famous siblings are subject thanks to its more reserved majority Thai Muslim population. With only a handful of hotels and resorts scattered along the coastline it’s the ideal getaway for those looking for a quiet break in the sun. Away from its sandy shores, the island is defined by its rubber plantations, mangrove forests, coconut groves and a handful of fishing villages and naturally there is no shortage of beaches and coves to discover and explore. Connects with Thailand Ko Yao NoiKnown for its low-key tourist scene, ultra-luxurious resorts, and peace-loving Muslim culture, Ko Yao Noi is an island idyll hidden among the famous party islands and backpacker beach towns of the Andaman Sea. Thailand PhuketThe largest and most popular of the Thai Islands has as many different personalities as it has beaches — and that’s quite a few! Pay no heed to those who say Phuket is past its prime: there are pockets of paradise here to compete with anywhere in the world. Thailand KrabiKrabi’s coastline is the stuff travel dreams are made of. Emerald vegetation clings to dramatic, gravity-defying cliffs, towering limestone pinnacles teeter precariously over the sea, and hundreds of little islands lie waiting to be explored. Thailand Khao Sok National ParkKhao Sok National Park is the place to stay at a rafthouse lodge, to kayak on Thailand’s most beautiful lake, to follow your nose to metre-wide “corpse flowers”, and trek past whispering bamboo groves and hooting gibbons to remote wildlife sanctuaries.
