Koh Yao Yai Guide

Between the provinces of Phuket and Krabi, at Phang Nga bay, is the island of Koh Yao Yai which means “big long island”. It is the larger island in the Koh Yao archipelago that features beautiful sandy beaches, rubber and coconut plantations, mangroves, and fishing villages.

Exploring this island is pretty much easy as there are tuk-tuks around and you can rent scooters. Luxurious resorts, spas, cafes, and great restaurants are also available on the island. The magnificent beaches here, which you can have for yourself sometimes, boast white sand and crystal-clear waters. There are also diving sites in the area like Shark Point, Anemone Reef, and King Cruiser wreck. Kayaking, ATV tours, trekking, and snorkeling are additional activities on Koh Yao Yai where you will be able to meet friendly locals and see the spectacular views and colorful underwater world this place has to offer.
