We show you the most beautiful islands in Thailand! Did you know that there are over 500 islands in the kingdom? In central and southern Thailand, there are countless beaches, beautiful bays and palm trees as far as the eye can see. Although many islands are uninhabitable due to the rock formations, they are still beautiful to look at. Phuket or Koh Samui are suitable for a family vacation, for example. You can find the best snorkeling spots around Koh Tao or Koh Lipe. Party lovers will look forward to Koh Phangan feel good. Probably the best known place is Koh Phi Phi with the enchanting Maya Bay surrounded by surreal nature and high limestone cliffs. All these islands have their very own charm and are a great contrast to the mountainous north or the metropolitan region Bangkok.
