Take an inventory of the top ten islands in Thailand (1)

Thailand, also known as "Siam", is one of the countries with the richest tourism resources in Southeast Asia, ranging from Baixian in Chiang Mai in northern Thailand to Krabi Samui in southern Thailand, from idyllic scenery to island holidays. But now people pursue freedom and yearn for the sea. There are too many nameless islands in Thailand that attract countless tourists. Today we will take stock of the ten most beautiful islands in Thailand.

similan archipelago

Mylan (Thai) is located in the Andaman Sea, 90km northwest of Phuket, Thailand. It consists of nine islands. 1 982 September1officially announced the establishment of a national park. The blue sea and vast beaches are the "standard" scenery here, and the rich marine life and magnificent coral reefs make it a world-class deep diving sanctuary.

The island is open from June 165438+ 10 to April of the following year, and it is not allowed to land on the island at other times. Generally, you can only go with a group. Most tourists start from Phuket. If the time budget is tight, they will choose 1 one-day tour (the time is a little short and hard). However, among the nine islands in Similan Islands, Island 2 and Island 4 can stay (Island 4 is the most important place to stay), so in order to fully appreciate the scenery of Similan Islands, it is recommended to stay for 2-3 days.

[2] KOH samui

Ko Samui, located in the Gulf of Thailand, is the third largest island in China, surrounded by 80 islands, but most of them are uninhabited. Coconut industry is one of the important economic sources on the island, so Koh Samui has won the reputation of "coconut island". Compared with Phuket, where tourism is mature, Koh Samui retains more natural and simple atmosphere, attracting tourists from all over the world with its unique charm. Koh Samui has many soft beaches, beautiful Buddhist temples and jungle waterfalls. It is also a good choice to take a boat to the surrounding islands to enjoy the original tropical scenery.

Koh Samui has a tropical climate with an average annual temperature of 28 degrees Celsius. From mid-December to April is the coolest season of the year. At this time, the warm sea water and sunshine in Koh Samui attract a large number of tourists, which is the tourist season. April to September is the hot season in Koh Samui. At this time, the weather is hot, accompanied by sudden heavy rain. Now is the off-season of tourism, and the house price may be cheaper than the peak season 1/3. It rains most days from July to September, which is also a season with frequent typhoons. Before you decide to go to Koh Samui, you should pay special attention to the news of tropical ocean storms. At this time, it is not appropriate to arrange recreational activities such as diving and going out to sea. From June 65438+ 10 to mid-February 65438+February, the rainy season in Koh Samui is continuous, but compared with the inland of Thailand, this rain is nothing.

[3] Elephant Island

As the second largest island in Thailand, Gaochang is not as famous as Phuket and Koh Samui in China. Eastern Thailand has always been a sparsely populated place, and the development of tourism is not as fast as that in the south. Historically, the name Elephant Island only appeared in a naval battle of 194 1. Even more than a decade ago, Elephant Island was just a relatively low-key and mysterious place. I wonder when the first European and American tourists discovered this place? Elephant Island is becoming more and more popular because of its superior tourism and holiday resources and good potential attractions. There are 52 small islands around Elephant Island, of which 47 are designated as national marine parks together with Elephant Island. Surrounded by mountains, this unexplored and unspoiled island, like a secret world that stays in time, is a real paradise and ecological paradise. The whole west coast is pristine and undeveloped beaches with palm trees. The seawater of Gexiang Island is pollution-free and crystal clear, which is most suitable for snorkeling activities. Besides swimming and diving, you can also rent motorcycles to play in several waterfalls on the island. Visitors can not only play on the exquisite white sand beach, but also take part in hiking, elephant riding, fishing, sailing, snorkeling and diving in the rainforest.

The temperature in Elephant Island is similar to that in Bangkok, and the peak season is also the best season of the year:165438+1October-February of the following year is the peak period for booking, so you should book at least one month in advance.
