Phi Phi Island, just off Krabi on the west Thailand coast, though small, is a very beautiful island. It has a rather rocky mountainous area on the northern half and a hilly area on the southern half.

It's interesting to see the monkeys swim. After that, we went on a nearby snorkeling tour. There were many beautiful fish to see.
