Like many I was inspired to see Thailand yesteryear the celluloid 'The Beach' (set inward Koh Phi Phi Leh - non to live on confused alongside the Koh Phi Phi Don - which is the larger of the 2 islands alongside many hotels on it).

I'll start out alongside maybe the most famous beach, the pocket-size isle where much of the scenes from the film, 'The Beach' were filmed (although it was inward fact filmed inward many locations giving the impression it was all on & around this pocket-size island).

Koh Phi Phi Don
Phi Phi Don is the larger of the 2 Phi Phi islands, together with is the to a greater extent than developed of the ii - having quite a few hotels etc on it together with beingness a haven for backpackers. Phi Phi Leh has no evolution on it whatsoever - but tin sack live on readily accessed via a brusk boat ride from Phi Phi Don. Below is a photograph of Phi Phi Don which was took inward the 80's I recall - earlier it became commercialised & touristy. As you lot tin sack encounter at that topographic point are no hotels on the strip of province betwixt the 2 higher pieces of land. I tin sack imagine this isle was a existent precious stone of a uncovering on the backpacker tourist trail inward the early on days.

On my trip circular Thailand, nosotros paid soul who had a boat to accept us from Phi Phi Don straight to Krabi. You tin sack of course of teaching wing straight into Krabi.
For me this surface area of Krabi, inward damage of scenery, had the best beaches I seen inward Thailand, surely the most suprisingly beautiful beaches - every bit I hadn't genuinely seen much of the beaches around hither earlier I went.
