A 200-year-old seaside village in Thailand! The villagers are not Thai

This is a floating village located in Phang Nga Bay, Phang Nga Province, Thailand. 100% of the villagers are Muslims, and they are the legendary sea nomads. They drifted to the Thai waters with the waves and settled down again for decades. 🇹🇭 The village is called: Panyee Address: Ko Panyi, Mueang Phang-nga District, Phang-nga 82000 🚤 Transportation: Charter a boat from various piers in Phang Nga Bay or join a Phang Nga Bay tour 💰 Cost: The trip usually costs 2000 for a long-tail boat, which is negotiable. A boat can seat about 6 people, and it's more cost-effective with more people 👍🏻 Visiting time: 2-4 hours 👍🏻 Visiting tips: 1. The village offers accommodation; for an in-depth experience, you can book a homestay in advance and stay for a few more days; 2. There is a primary school in the village that is worth visiting for photos and a stroll to experience the different campus atmosphere of the waterborne ethnic group; 3. The most famous thing here is a sea football field. Despite the tough training conditions, a football team from here has won honors in competitions! 4. Pearls are produced here, so there will be many stalls selling pearl jewelry, but remember to bargain! 5. There is also a mosque on the island where you can sit quietly or take photos, experiencing the Muslim prayer rituals; 6. During your visit, be sure to pay attention to hygiene and environmental protection to preserve the natural environment!
