Phi Phi Island Travel




Phi Phi beach

The Phi Phi Island in Thailand was our last travel destination during our internship in Singapore. We have heard so much about this paradise on earth, that we decided to see on our own how this one of the most beautiful islands in Thailand looks like.
Almost everybody knows that Phi Phi Islands, as well as Phuket and the whole Thai west coast have been heavily devastated by the Tsunami on 26. Dec 2004. We also knew it before going to Phi Phi and therefore were prepared to see many signs of the catastrophe that happened and took as many as 800 casualties. This is a huge number of people taking into account that the island is actually very small and there aren’t so many permanent inhabitants. In the dry season (Nov-March) however, there are thousands of tourists, as it was when the Tsunami came.....
