As we cruised towards the Phi Phi Islands, the 1-hour and 45-minute journey was nothing short of spectacular. The Andaman Sea’s turquoise waters and the gentle sea breeze set the perfect tone for a day of adventure and relaxation.
Maya Bay – Thailand’s Iconic Paradise
Our first stop was the world-famous Maya Bay, made famous by the movie The Beach. With its soft white sand, towering limestone cliffs, and crystal-clear waters, this spot is a dream come true.
• Entrance Fee: 400 THB for adults, 200 THB for children (for national park access).

Next, we sailed to Monkey Bay, a small cove surrounded by lush jungle, home to a lively troop of macaque monkeys. These playful creatures are used to visitors but should be admired from a safe distance.
• Entrance Fee: Included in the national park fee.
• Highlights: Watching monkeys roam freely on the beach, crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkeling.
We grabbed our snorkeling gear and dived into the sea, discovering vibrant coral reefs and colorful marine life. The clear waters made it easy to spot schools of fish swimming around us.

Though we couldn’t enter the cave, our guide shared fascinating stories about its history and significance to the local community.
