Phi Phi Island #Day11

Phi Phi Island has got to be the most popular Island to visit near Phuket thanks to its beautiful scenery. 

So typical me woke up with what I’m pretty sure was gastro this morning. I took some medication and spent the taxi ride there absolutely dying thinking there was no way I was possibly getting on that speed boat. 

Then miraculously, I started to feel a bit better! I planted myself at the very back of the boat and struggled on the 1 hour trip to the island as it was pretty choppy. I spent the day a bit out of it but was grateful because I could have been a lot worse! 

Check it out: 

Above is Monkey Bay, we didn’t go on shore (for insurance reasons) but could see a couple of monkeys from the boat. 

We stopped in the ocean for some snorkeling. Not many people went in because it is more of a sight seeing tour and about half the boat couldn’t actually swim!

People were amazed that we jumped off the front of the boat with no life jacket and no flippers. 

The visability was unfortunately really poor and there were sea urchins everywhere so we had to be so careful not to step on them. 

Then there was this freaky black fish swimming all over us, first following Laura then went on my leg and I swiped it off and felt it all slimey along my hand! Haha it would not get off me so I swam to the boat just when they decided to throw food in right near my head so hundreds of these yellow fish surrounded me and splashed in my face! 

Let’s just say I got out shortly after hahah

Next stop, Phi Phi Dong for lunch: 

(Yet again another fish started biting me. I must taste really good) 

We went by the Viking Caves: 

And Loh Samah Bay for some great photos. 

Then we arrived at the ever so famsous, Maya Bay: 

We crossed to the other side for a viewpoint: 

There was a rope ladder to scramble down, with heaps of crabs at the bottom! 

We travelled 45minutes to Khai Island for an hour of swimming before heading only 30 minutes back to Phuket Island. 

We arrived back at 6pm, way earlier than all our other trips! 

Caught the Sunset:

Dinner at our favourite restaurant: 

Then a 1 hour foot massage before crepes and bed. 

Tomorrow we are leaving at 6am for our last Island trip to Koh Rok!
