Ko Phi Phi consists of two separate islands, Phi Phi Don & Phi Phi Ley.  Currently the majority of the climbing and the only accommodation is on Phi Phi Don.  Phi Phi Ley, where the movie "The Beach" was filmed, is a 20 minute longtail boat ride away and has a few existing bolted climbing routes  (more to be soon developed).

 

What to do when you're not climbing?

Check out the sights around Phi Phi Don & Phi Phi Ley from a different vantage point on a boat excursion.   Day trips include scuba diving, snorkeling,  and kayaking.  Or do nothing but relax on the beach enjoying the spectacular scenery.

Well deserved treats after a day of climbing . . .

Thai Massage

Try a traditional Thai massage, best described as a mix between chiropractic techniques, unique deep tissue kneading, and yoga moves.   The ladies at Siamese massage will find and fix the places that ache - it's guaranteed.  They know just which muscles need extra attention after a hard day of climbing.  Special massages include aloe vera lotion for sunburned skin or a herbal hot rock intensive treatment which focuses on especially sore areas. 

Restaurants

Thailand is famous worldwide for it's cuisine, and you won't be disappointed with the large variety of excellent restaurants on Phi Phi Don.  Try dining at our favorites:  Kozmic's (owners are Italian & Thai, making for a unique combination of dishes), chill at the Chilli House Restuarant for a variety of cuisines & relaxed bar,  or eat authentic Thai food at the local's secret spot, Phimai's.

Bars

Afterwards, if you're looking for a wild night of entertainment, head to one of the many lively bars featuring live music & dance.  For a  relaxed tropical atmosphere on the beach, go to the Jungle Bar where all buildings are constructed with natural materials and traditional building methods.   Here you may find Suchard performing a fire dance to live acoustic music.
