As a person who went to Thailand no less than ten times, I even missed this beautiful island! Libe Island has the title of Thai Pony Generation. Because the sea is particularly beautiful, there are very few tourists, so this time I choose to come here with my boyfriend to see and then! ! ! is beautiful! ! Unlike the excitement of other islands in Thailand (Sumei, Pippi, Phangan, Tao, Phuket), Lipe Island is very quiet and the water is super clean! Its all over the place, its probably because of the development, there are not many tourists, so there is no pollution . traffic: domestic-Hai Ai (the middle needs to transit in Bangkok or other cities) / Hh / Hat Yai - Lipe Island (about 1 hour by boat, there are boats every day, mfw can be fixed on the ticket) . Hotel: Libe Island is not big, points For three areas: Sunrise Beach, Sunset Beach, Pattaya Beach I think Sunrise Beach is the most beautiful, I recommend you book a hotel in this area specific hotel introduction I will write next ~ . Play: The biggest and biggest advantage of this island is that it is very quiet, very suitable for couples to come on holiday, or bring parents to basically every hotel has a scratch The boat is loaned to the guests, because there are many uninhabited islands near Lipe Island (very close, you can row your own boat), look at corals and small fish there are various day trips to sign up Because there is a national marine park nearby, there are many dive sites, no islands, and there is a Monkey Beach. There are many little monkey fun we pack a half-day boat (only two of us) price of around 400-500rmb The island also has a bar decorated very nice! ! (Picture 2) Called Sea La Vie, at Sunrise Beach, drinking and listening to music while watching the sea during the day, its just too pleasant. . Food: Although this Island development is relatively late, but! ! ! Thailand's strong tourism industry is still not able to achieve! They have a Walking Street, all small restaurant shops, all kinds of 7-11, and most of them can be used when I went to Alipay Chinese food, but there are many delicious Thai restaurants There are two Western restaurants recommended! Very tasty! Elephant Caf and Cafe Tropical, the western food is very authentic!
