Roughly half way between Krabi and Phuket by ferry is this small island with an amazing town entirely chriscrossed with laneways full of stalls and shops and I didn't see any cars or trucks. Its built on and isthmus of sand between rock. It was swept away by a tidal wave in 2004 but has been rebuilt . On a nearby island is Maya Beach which was the place where The Beach was filmed . It seems to now have a cult following with young people and heaps of people come here, We stayed 2 nights and it was fun but don't stay at the Orange Tree, I don't know how it could get a 9.4 rating from Agoda!
