Phuket Island Hopping Guide to Phi Phi Islands and Egg Island


I've used the term "jelly sea" hundreds of thousands of times to describe seawater, and this time I finally saw the real jelly sea. After visiting here in 1923, Maugham wrote: "The blue of the Andaman Sea is enough to heal the soul." Really, how can the sea be so blue, and the beach so fine that it looks like a virtual world.

After island hopping for a week, Phi Phi Islands is worth a visit. The Viking Cave on Phi Phi Leh Island has 200 million-year-old Jurassic limestone layers on its rock walls, and Maya Bay is where Leonardo DiCaprio's "The Beach" was filmed. Carefree, just embracing the sunshine and running towards the beach, jumping into the sparkling sea and chasing small fish when the speedboat docks, I was so happy at this moment!

💡 Tips
✓ Clothing suggestions: Bikini + sunscreen shirt + quick-drying pants, convenient for activities and sun protection; bring a set of clean clothes to change into on the return trip.
✓ Photography equipment: Waterproof mobile phone bag, GoPro (to record the underwater world), wide-angle lens for more stunning seascapes!
✓ Sunscreen! The ultraviolet rays are super strong. It is recommended to reapply SPF50+ sunscreen every 2 hours. Physical sunscreen (hat + long-sleeved swimsuit) is more reliable.
