Island Hopping

Living on an Island in Southern Thailand we often get caught up in the daily grind. We take for granted the beauty around us. My fiance and I have vowed to travel to as many of the islands in Southeast East Asia as we can. There are thousands of inhabited islands waiting to be explored.

Our Teakwood Longtail Boat Taxi

We hopped on our boat and headed off to Yao Noi, the journey can be taken by speedboat in thirty minutes but we chose to slow down and take a long tail boat. Sometimes you need-to slow down a bit.

Limestone Karsts

Phang Nga Bay is dotted with these amazing limestone karsts that emerge from the water in a mythical sort of way.

Local Taxi

Once we arrived to Yao Noi we grabbed a local open air taxi and headed off to explore.

Taking in the Sites

Views of Phang Nga Bay

The number one thing we wanted to do is relax and enjoy what the Island has to offer.

Sand Crab

As we were relaxing on the beach we seen these small sand crabs darting back and forth. Some were forming their rendition of crop circles.

Long Tail on Pasai Beach

One of the more popular beaches on the Island is Pasai beach. There are lots of swings to sit and take in the breathtaking views.

Spending two days and one night was a quick trip but still relaxing.
