So yesterday was our last bit of time in Koh Phi Phi which was quite sad as it really was a stunning island. We went up to the viewpoint which we went to on our first day to take some pictures that we had lost. The walk up to the top is a NIGHTMARE though! There must be about a 1000 steps and the slope when you get to the top of the steps is sooo steep that you have to walk on tip toes haha.

The view is so worth it though so we got some nice pictures there 😊 We then just relaxed on the beach until 3 as our ferrie to Railay was due at half 3.

Managed to get a good spot on the deck of the boat so we could sunbathe the whole way with the wind blowing in our face which was lovely and stopped me feeling sea sick! Phew!

When we arrived at Railay a guy started shouting a different beach out and asking whoever was going to that beach to jump out onto a Long boat which would take us over to it as the tide was right out. We asked what the beach was like and if it was cheaper than Railay as we had heard its really expensive and were told that its much cheaper and looked amazing from what we could see out on the ferry!

We decided to just go for it and see what it was like when we got there... well it was definitely a good choice! The beach is the most amazing we have seen so far and a climbers paradise which is good for Sean. There are massive towering rocks up either side of the beach with climbers all over them and crystal blue sea and even cooler beach bars than in Koh Phi Phi. ... There are also signs everywhere for 'happy shakes' and 'happy cakes' and magic mushrooms and it just seems mental but at the same time definitely the most chilled out place we have been yet.

It is quite expensive though, compared to where we have been. Our accomodation is a wooden bungalow which costs us 1000baht a night between us which is 10 pound each. Not sure whether we will be here very long as there isnt a lot to do and the climbing is very expensive but we shall see how it goes. Was definitely worth coming here just to see this hidden little place 😊 Im trying to add pictures but all the computers are SO slow so its hard and the internet is ridiculously expensive but I will at some point!
