Located in Krabi Province, Phi Phi is 40km from Krabi and Phuket, approximately 1.5 hours by ferry. The worldwide exposure the island gained in the Hollywood film “The Beach” made what was already a famous holiday island even more popular.

The name Phi Phi actually refers to two islands, Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Leh. There are six islands in the Phi Phi island group; Phi Phi Don, Phi Phi Leh, Biddah Nok, Biddah Nai, Yung and Pai. These form a total area of about 35 square kilometres. In 1983, they were incorporated into Had Noppharat Thara - Mu Koh Phi Phi National Park.

Phi Phi Don - All the development is restricted to Phi Phi Don, the centre of which is Ao Ton Sai (Ton Sai bay), which is where the ferry pier is located. Only a couple of hundred yards on the other side of the narrow isthmus is Ao Loh Da Lam (Loh Da Lam bay), a beautiful and peaceful bay. For a really quiet beach there is Hat Yao (Long beach), a south-facing beach near the southern tip of the island.

Phi Phi Leh - Phi Phi Ley is quite spectacular. The main beach, Hat Maya, was the location used in the film “The Beach”. Even more impressive, Ao Pileh is very nearly enclosed by the limestone walls of the island's cliffs, so that the small bay appears almost to be an inland sea. You can't stay on Phi Phi Ley but the island is easily reached by longtail boat or speedboat from Phi Phi Don. Boats can be chartered from Ton Sai beach.

Yung Island - This small island lies to the north of Phi Phi Don. There is a rocky beach on the east side, and a smaller strand of sand in a fold of the hill. Some really beautiful corals can be found here.

Pai Island - Pai Island lies not far from Yung Island. The north and east sides of the island have sandy beaches. There is a broad coral reefs which stretches away to the south.

Travelling to Phi Phi

From Phuket - Phi Phi Island is reached by a daily scheduled passenger ferry service. The ferries depart from Phuket Pier at 08:00 (all year round) and 13:30 (from November to April only). Journey time is approximately 90 minutes. Return tickets can be purchased for about 600 Baht. Tickets can be used for any return trip and are not tied to a specific date, so you can be flexible with your plans. If you book your ticket from a local travel agent, the price will include transfer to the pier. If you want to get there faster, a round-trip by speedboat.
From Krabi - Boats depart from Krabi Town and Ao Nang beach around 4 times daily (subject to change). The journey takes about 90 minutes depending on weather conditions. During the low season (May - October) departures may be delayed due to weather conditions.
