Actually two Islands - Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Leh - these two awesome sisters languish in the sea like a pair of emerald jewels studding the aquamarine waters
of Phang Nga Bay.
It's
one of the most picturesque islands in the world. You'll marvel at the stunning
movie-set desert-island scenery both above and below the waterline.
Koh Phi Phi scuba diving ranks amongst the top five dive destinations in Thailand.
Limestone cliffs rise dramatically out of the sea and plunge straight back down
underwater, forming the colourful soft coral walls for which Phi Phi is famous.
There are more than 15 different dive sites with many rugged walls, interesting
caves and cavern penetrations. Swim-through entrances are often obscured by
dazzling clouds of glassfish and gorgonians. Sea fans harbour pipefish, seahorses
and shrimpfish, keeping even the most experienced divers entertained for days.
The islands lie in Krabi Province, so the sea life is substantially different
to our other Thailand scuba destinations. In many places, the islands are fringed
with shallow coral gardens, where hard and soft corals and sponges prosper harmoniously
amongst the myriad marine life. Here's your best opportunity to happen across
green and hawksbill turtles munching on bubble corals, black and white banded
sea snakes, squid, angelfish, crocodile long-toms, black-tip reef sharks and
leopard (zebra) sharks.
The diving in Phi Phi, along with its beautiful movie-set beaches, seemingly
endless number of coves and bays, and laid-back life style appeals to holidaymakers
from all walks of life. Travellers, young backpackers, tropical island paradise
seekers, and those simply looking for a few days of fun, easy living in the
sun, are all delighted by the wide range of diving adventures that these islands
have to offer.
