We already booked our first trip here when we were still in Austria and actually it was planned that only the four Austrians will go, but then fortunately another 15 people decided to join us and also booked a flight. We arrived in Phuket on Thursday night and slept in Phuket and went to Patong Beach (the biggest beach in Phuket) on Friday. The beach was full with people and of course the old white men weren’t missing with their young Asian girls …
So as we didn't really like it in Phuket, we took the ferry to The Phi Phi Islands on Saturday morning to enjoy the rest of our trip there. We all slept in a hostel in the centre of The Phi Phi Islands but still it only took us five minutes on foot to get to the next beach. On the first day, six of us took a small taxi boat and we went around the islands, did some snorkelling and watched the breathteaking sunset - a very windy but great experience!!
The second day all of us took a big boat and we went to different islands the whole day and at a few stations we could get off the boat, do some snorkelling or kayaking and enjoy the breathtaking scenery. We also visited an island where the film The Beach was filmed. It is a national park and during the day it is full of people … unfortunately. Still, the boat trip was also great and we even visited some beaches, where the sand is like white flour - just so fine and nice. I could imagine staying there a little longer …
