Phi Phi Island Tours Packages and Vacations

Ko Phi Phi or the Phi Phi Islands is an archipelago of six islands found in the province of Krabi, in southern Thailand. Situated 50 km southeast of Phuket, approaching the western shores of mainland Thailand, the islands are part of a protected maritime park. It is considered to be one of the most naturally beautiful islands in Thailand with its coral, long white sandy beaches and backdrop of limestone mountains with sheer cliffs

Archeologically speaking, Ko Phi Phi is considered one of the oldest communities in Thailand, dating back to prehistoric periods. More recently, the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami destroyed most of the island’s infrastructure, but redevelopment was swift, with stricter regulations for the islands in place.

The Phi Phi Islands offer a climate similar to that of Krabi and Phuket. The climate is hot and humid due to the tropical monsoons but is not divided into traditional seasons. Instead, months can be split into the rainy season (May to October) and the dry season (December and March). The rainy season can expect heavier rainfall, averaging 20 days per month, while the dry season only experiences rainfall an average of 3 days per month. The annual temperatures remain constant between the seasons, with average temperatures ranging from 24 to 31° Celsius (75 - 88 Fahrenheit).

With coral reefs and limestone karsts featured in and around the archipelago, visitors can enjoy scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming and climbing, in addition to kayaking and sunbathing while in the Phi Phi Islands on Thailand tours. Shoppers will love the colourful batiks the region is known for handcrafting, and one might be a spectator to the various longtail boat races.

A short ferry ride from Phuket, Ko Phi Phi makes a wonderful day or stopover excursion for those looking to capture some of Thailand’s most natural beauty.
