We're showing you the best of the Similan Islands. This Island group is located off the coast of Khao Lak. I'm amazed that everyone is going to Phi Phi and skipping this magnificent island group. Be aware this Island group closes down from the 15th of May until the 15th of October each year.
This is filmed at the Similan Islands in Phang Nga Province; goo.gl/maps/aDRzbxiXEaPEuqs2A

Another good video Chai. I liked that we had many stops when we were there 2 months ago. It was gorgeous, but for me dreadfully boring only going to one island. Totally agree there are too many people, but hopefully the government will make changes accordingly to preserve the area if it becomes unsustainable. A sad note was the sheer number of IG people who clearly were not in the moment and appreciating the place they were in, but instead had their totes filled with props and outfit changes and spent the entire time posing.

Thanks for the video, where did you stay in Phuket? Is it a hotel/villa? How far is it from the Airport? Any reason why this Island group closes down from the 15th of May until the 15th of October each year? Cheers!

Thanks, we stayed in Kata a few times. I also recommend staying in Old town for a night of two to check out the Sunday market. Accommodation is easy to find on Agoda. The island closes to recover nature and also the weather. Due to rain and wilder sea the island are less easy accessible. I hope this helped you a bit ☺️
