Thailand
Koh Phi Phi is a must see destination when passing through Thailand. Destroyed by the 2004 tsunami, Phi Phi has been completely rebuilt and the smile of the inhabitants who have lost everything has warmed my heart. Find out why Koh Phi Phi and its neighbor Koh Phi Phi Ley are such a crush!

Do one (or several) boat tour / islands hopping
It is possible to do this activity anywhere in Thailand given the number of islands that the country has. But Koh Phi Phi remains number one!
The most famous tour is Koh Phi Phi Leh, which is just opposite to Koh Phi Phi. Turquoise waters, fish and corals paradise, heavenly beaches (including the famous Maya bay from the movie with Leonardo DiCaprio). Everything to amaze you.

Snorkeling / diving
Snorkeling is mostly included in the tours. They lend you masks and snorkels if you don't have yours.
For diving, you need to go to a special agency. There are several on Koh Phi Phi and some even have French/ Spanish (etc) monitors. I didn't want to do it because I was stressed for my breathing, being so deep underwater etc. But they managed to reassure me and convince me to do my baptism.
It was incredible!

Go up to the viewpoint
You will have to climb a few stairs to get to a very nice little garden where you will be asked to pay for access to the viewpoint.
You will have to climb a little more and a spectacular view will await you.

To party
The island is full of small bars and super nice restaurants. You can eat there from any country cuisines, at any budget.
There are several beachside bars where you can dance on the sand.
There are clubs with DJs and pool parties.
There are "fire shows" where the artists invite you to participate. It is spectacular and creates wonderful memories.
Something to get away from and have a good time!
