One of the most popular islands in Thailand is the famous island of Koh Phi Phi. Youmight recognize this Island because ‘”Maya Beach” is located there and it's famously known for where the movie “The Beach” was filmed. Since then, tourists have been visiting non stop. This island is known for it’s wild parties,so if you’re looking to have fun from the afternoon to the early morning, this is the right place for you. This is a wonderful location to do the typical beach ‘things’. Go scuba diving, rent a kayak, go on a hike or even take a fun cooking class. One thing to consider is that there are no roads in Koh Phi Phi, so be prepared to walk or take a bike. Keep in mind that there are no airports in the area, the closest airport is in Krabi or Phuket. Luckily, it’s super easy to catch a ferry from Phuket, Koh Phangan or Koh Sumui to name a few.
Wi-fi is almost standard in hotels, guesthouses and cafes. Signal strength deteriorates in the upper floors of a multistorey building; request a room near a router if wi-fi is essential. Cellular data networks continue to expand and increase in capability.
