[2025 Phi Phi Islands Attraction] Travel Guide for Mosquito Island (Updated Jul)

#naturelover #stunning#familytrip #attractive#best_trip_by_trip #beauty The Phi Phi Islands are everything you imagine when you think of a tropical paradise — turquoise waters, limestone cliffs, powdery beaches, and an atmosphere that instantly puts your soul at ease. Located just off the coast of Phuket and Krabi, this island group is one of Thailand’s most breathtaking treasures. From the moment I stepped onto Phi Phi Don, the largest and only inhabited island, I was swept away by the laid-back vibe and stunning surroundings. The absence of cars adds to the island’s charm — everything is reachable by foot or long-tail boat, making the experience feel intimate and unspoiled. One of the highlights was visiting Maya Bay, famously featured in the movie The Beach. Surrounded by towering cliffs and crystal-clear waters, it’s truly one of the most beautiful spots I’ve ever seen. Though it’s now protected and access is regulated, even just viewing it from a distance or setting foot on its shores was magical. Snorkeling and island-hopping were the stars of the trip. Phi Phi's waters are teeming with marine life — from vibrant coral reefs to playful tropical fish. I took a long-tail boat tour to explore smaller islands like Bamboo Island and Mosquito Island, each offering unique scenery and peaceful beaches perfect for sunbathing and swimming. The viewpoint hike on Phi Phi Don is an absolute must. The short trek rewards you with a panoramic view of the twin bays and lush green landscapes — a picture-perfect moment, especially during sunrise or sunset. Evenings on Phi Phi are full of life and energy. The beachfront comes alive with fire shows, live music, and buzzing beach bars. But what I loved most was how you could choose your pace — whether it's relaxing by the beach with a cocktail or dancing under the stars. The local food was another highlight — fresh seafood, Thai curries, and tropical fruits served up with genuine island hospitality. There's something special about enjoying a plate of pad thai with your toes in the sand. A huge thank you to Trip.com for making this island escape smooth and stress-free. From ferry bookings to accommodation and local tours, everything was organized perfectly. Their travel guides helped me find hidden gems, and their platform made planning incredibly easy. Phi Phi Islands are more than a destination — they’re an experience that captures your heart. If you’re dreaming of turquoise waters and unforgettable sunsets, this is the place to be.

Mosquito Island (Koh Yung in Thai) is the Phi Phi group's northeasternmost island. It is located 2.5 kilometers off the northern tip of Koh Phi Phi Don and has a bent nail-like appearance (when viewed from above) with a length of 1,000 meters and a width of only 150 meters. It is deserted, as are five of the six islands that make up the Phi Phi archipelago. The northeasternmost island in the Phi Phi group is Mosquito Island (Koh Yung in Thai).
