Koh Sirey (or Siray or indeed Si Ray) is a rather forgotten corner of Phuket, located to the eastward of Phuket Town, over a modest yoke past times the Rassada Ferry Terminal (from where y'all larn boats to Phi Phi together with Krabi). We get-go went exploring inward Koh Sirey many years agone together with it was really quiet. Now at that spot are quite a few "seaview developments" together with 1 large resort - the Westin Siray Bay which opened dorsum inward most 2010.
This is an updated post service which was get-go blogged dorsum inward 2006! I added some newer photos inward 2011 together with right away some fifty-fifty newer 2017 photos!

Much of Koh Sirey is undeveloped amongst lots of prophylactic plantations, kokosnoot trees, a body of body of water gypsy village, a few large houses, a school, a fair set out of locals together with a temple on the hill. The temple is merely past times the school. You function past times through an entrance past times the route upwards a slight colina to an opened upwards area, plough correct together with the route carries on up. Not much parking infinite (park where y'all like, it is unlikely to hold out busy) together with caput upwards the steps lined past times ii dragons. Inside the master copy temple edifice (if it's open) y'all detect a large reclining Buddha. We've been possibly 8 or ix times over the years. It's actually prissy but could hold out amazing amongst a fleck of investment. On a hill, swell views, large Buddha .... win! We e'er function out a donation.
You tin move too walk unopen to the exterior of the temple earlier climbing the steps - the route winds correct unopen to the temple which is surrounded past times hundreds of other Buddha images. It's actually quite beautiful. And nevertheless every fourth dimension nosotros accept been at that spot accept never been to a greater extent than than a handful of visitors.
