Thailand - The Andamen islands

We were lucky enough to have the opportunity to travel through the Andaman Sea islands all the way from Malaysia. We liked all the islands, but some stood head and shoulders over the others for us. Of course everyone is different and therefore, may have a different opinion, but we were looking for somewhere with a bit of character, great beaches and peace and quiet. Here is our take on the Thai Andamen sea islands...

Our favourite
Our overall best island was Koh Bulone Leh. It didn't have the best beach, but it made up for this with a great vibe, down to earth locals, and Su's cinnamon buns! The island had a good mix of ultra cheap to good higher end places to stay, food was good and prices were reasonable. There were a couple of nice bars as well to have a nice drink in the evening, without feeling the pressure to party party party.

Thailand - Koh Bulone Leh - Stranded in Paradise

It was a choppy, rather wet and crowded hour speedboat ride from Koh Lipe to Koh Bulone Leh (600 THB pp). Luckily we had seats at the back of the boat so we could look out the back at the horizon and watch Lipe disappear from view.


Koh Bulone Leh... where is everyone?

Thailand - Koh Lipe - first stop on our island tour

Arriving into Koh Lipe is an experience as you can only get there (like the majority of the Thai islands) by boat.


I'm on a beach!
