Phi Phi Island (a.k.a James Bond Island), one of the most popular island to visit when you are in Krabi. Now, I know that this island is in the "must visit" list when you are there, however I personally think that the place is too crowded and commercialized. If you are thinking of sun bathing, beach games or even a swim, perish the thoughts! The beach area is rather small, it's dangerous to swim around the beach as there are too many speed boats and if you manage to find a spot to sun bathe, pray that you won't be stepped on by other tourists who would be trying to find the best spot to take a photograph.
If my memory serves me right, all the beaches we visited during our stay in Krabi looks almost the same! So why not take a tour to other less famous island instead. For instance, the Poda Island. The sea water is crystal clear and the beach is not crowded by 100 hundred people trying to take selfies. It's a place where you may actually take out your beach blanket or mat to sun tan, run around and swim your heart out. Definitely cheaper too since the island is not as popular as Phi Phi Island.
