The seawater is so blue it pierces the heart, with a clarity far better than a rushed one-day tour; only an immersive sea view can truly heal you

When choosing an island to stay near Phuket, I sincerely recommend spending two nights on Phi Phi Island✨ The seawater is so blue it pierces the heart, with a clarity far better than a rushed one-day tour; an immersive sea view is truly healing~I thought the small island would be remote and simple, but the convenience is top-notch, with 7-Eleven, specialty restaurants, massage shops, and small bars all available. Everything you need is within walking distance, no extra transportation required, making slow strolls and long walks comfortable and pleasant🌴 Here are some practical tips from personal experience to save you trouble and avoid pitfalls👇 1. Prioritize carrying cash! Most shops only accept Thai Baht. There are ATMs and money exchange points, but the rates aren’t as good as in Bangkok. Only 7-Eleven supports WeChat Pay and Alipay, so don’t forget to bring money~ 2. Booking boat tickets online in advance is cheaper. Speedboats save 1 hour but have loud engines and can be bumpy in rough seas. If you’re not in a hurry, choose the big boat—super comfortable, smooth, and quiet, and the 2.5-hour sea view ride is enjoyable🚢 3. A long-tail boat trip is a must! The island’s beaches and natural lagoons are stunningly beautiful, perfect for snorkeling and water fun~Negotiate directly with the boatman on the beach for a private boat, which is very cost-effective. Four hours of deep exploration plus patient snorkeling can be unlocked for just 2,000 Thai Baht, giving you exclusive sea views🌊 4. It’s recommended to bring your own snorkeling gear for hygiene. If you don’t have one, remember to change the mouthpiece for safer water play. 5. Most water on the island is purified seawater for daily use, so don’t drink it directly. It’s perfectly fine for washing and daily use, so just relax and enjoy your stay. Pack your strategy and head to Phi Phi Island, dive headfirst into this healing blue, and all the joy of island vacation is right here🌞
