Phi Phi Islands

The Phi Phi Islands are a stunningly beautiful archipelago in southern Thailand, rising dramatically from the Andaman Sea with sheer limestone karst cliffs, powdery white sand beaches, and crystal-clear turquoise waters. Ko Phi Phi Don — the largest and only inhabited island — offers vibrant nightlife and accommodation, while the uninhabited Ko Phi Phi Le's Maya Bay (famously used in the film 'The Beach') is one of Southeast Asia's most iconic seascapes. Day trips from Phuket or Krabi make them one of Thailand's most visited destinations.

Big Buddha

The Big Buddha (Phra Phuttha Ming Mongkol Akenakkiri) is a massive white marble statue atop Nakkerd Hill on the southern tip of Phuket, visible from miles away at sea and across the island. Standing 45 meters tall on a hilltop temple complex at 381 meters elevation, it offers sweeping 360-degree views over Chalong Bay, the Andaman Sea, and Phuket's interior. The site is an important Buddhist pilgrimage destination and popular sunrise and sunset viewpoint.
