We arrived on Ko Phi Phi at nine in the morning eagerly expecting paradise on earth. Five minutes later we were sure that we had got off on the wrong island as we had entered travellers hell. Touts, tourists, towerblocks and tantrums followed. By midday we still hadn't found any decent (and reasonably priced) accommodation and we had stopped speaking to each other!
Thankfully, the ever resourceful Garry phoned a place he had heard of and they came in a boat to collect us. http://www.ballofdirt.com/media/10654/168723/780347.html This is a link to the beach we were taken to. Immediately we relaxed, had a beer and started talking again. It seems that we might, after all, have found paradise.
We took several trips out to Maya Beach (where they filmed "The Beach") and to Bamboo Island. The snorkelling was amazing and the sea so perfect.
