Koh Phi Phi
Thailand's most famous islands — Maya Bay, party beach + snorkelling paradise
Koh Phi Phi is the iconic Thai island — Maya Bay (from The Beach), party beaches at Tonsai + Loh Dalum, and world-class snorkelling. Vehicle-free island. Overrated for some, essential for others — go outside peak season if you can.
