Racha Yai Island.

Among the beaches we visited, this is the cleanest and it takes less than an hour from the mainland. We snorkeled from the boat in the front bay and saw the most beautiful corals and abundant fish in the crystal-clear water. After braving a very shaky pontoon joined with plastic containers, we arrived at a breathtaking beach with no crowds and only a few swimmers. The tractor ride across the island took us to the back beach, which was very rocky and not suitable for beach swimming, but the brave gliding over the rocks rewarded us with even better snorkeling. Forget the famous islands (especially Phi Phi), this is incomparable and the best island I have visited in Thailand. Get the cheapest transfer through a speedboat and maximize the time spent on a day trip there. Beautiful blue water. Very sparkling, a must-visit. The view from the top of the mountain is amazing. One of the beaches. We took a taxi bike from the resort and our taxi driver was great! He dropped each of us off and came to pick us up! The beach was splendid. Crystal-clear water and white sandy beaches. l. Wonderful sunset views. What more could you ask for?
