Which island to go to? HELP!
 

Hi there,
I'm ending my trip in Thailand in mid December and there's so many islands to choose from. I'm looking to stay at a beatiful beach (important) with white sand and crystal waters. IT's more for relaxing but I would also like to have the option of doing some activites during the day. I hear that the weather is nicer on the west coast (Phuket vs. Samui) than the gulf this time around. I can't decide between Phuket (is it too touristy), Ko Phi Phi (what is it like after the tsunami) or the islands of Krabi - I'm leaning towards Krabi.
I would love anyone's advice on this. We'll be in the islands for 4 days.
Thanks!

Krabi would be my bet for 4 days - I think it is stunning although I like phi phi too. Krabi has beautiful beaches and striking scenery (those famous limestone cliffs) - you can snorkel, take boat trips, kayak, take a day trip to phi phi, rock climb or just laze around - perfect.

wherever you decide to go I would book now!

i can't believe how many islands there are, it's overwhelming!

Now if you were looking to the Philippines there are over 7,000 islands!

Krabi all the way. Stay at Rayavadee. Absolutely beautiful beaches. You can take many day exursions from Krabi.
