Koh Lanta – The Island with a Laid-Back Escape Vibe
Relax on beautiful, peaceful beaches, experience the island’s laid-back escape atmosphere, and enjoy nights in the many Freedom Bars that continue until the early morning hours – that’s Koh Lanta.
The island impresses with mangrove forests, dense jungle landscapes and a stunning national park. Everything you need to know about Koh Lanta, including its best beaches and attractions, can be found in our detailed travel guide.
Koh Phangan – More Than Just the Full Moon Party

Koh Samui Travel Guide – 9 Attractions You Shouldn’t Miss
Koh Samui is one of the most famous and popular travel destinations in Thailand. It’s easy to understand why, as the island offers beautiful beaches with soft white sand and crystal-clear waters.
The tourism infrastructure on Koh Samui is excellent, with multiple daily flights arriving from Bangkok and international destinations, making the island especially convenient to reach. Thanks to its accessibility, Koh Samui is also a popular choice for first-time visitors to Thailand.
In our Koh Samui travel guide, you’ll find everything you need to know for planning your trip, including the island’s top attractions, beaches and travel tips.
Railay – The Peninsula with Breathtaking Landscapes & Stunning Beaches
Railay is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in Thailand. The scenery, shaped by dramatic limestone cliffs and offshore islands, is truly breathtaking.
Even though the peninsula has become heavily touristic over the years, visiting Railay is still absolutely worthwhile. Personally, I tend to prefer destinations that remain untouched by mass tourism. Crowds aside, Railay is an extraordinary natural gem and, in my opinion, a place every traveller to Thailand should experience at least once.
In our Railay travel guide, you’ll find everything important you need to know for planning your trip.
Koh Tao – The 11 Best Beaches & Attractions
Koh Tao is especially popular among divers and snorkellers, as the waters surrounding the island offer several excellent spots to explore Thailand’s fascinating underwater world.
However, the island has far more to offer than diving. Expect beautiful beaches, impressive viewpoints and stunning natural scenery. The nearby Nang Yuan Islands are a true visual highlight and seem almost like a masterpiece created by nature itself.
The famous sandbank connecting the islands is considered one of the most photographed attractions in Thailand.
Koh Tao is also an excellent destination for island hopping, especially when combined with Koh Samui and Koh Phangan.
Discover more about Koh Tao in our detailed travel guide.
Koh Yao Noi – The Peaceful Island Away from Mass Tourism
Although Koh Yao Noi lies only around 40 minutes by boat from Phuket, the island has remained largely untouched by mass tourism. Here, you’ll find a quiet and relaxed island atmosphere, surrounded by beautiful nature and lush landscapes.
Koh Yao Noi is also home to several paradise-like beaches, although many are less suited for swimming due to their shallow waters and occasionally rocky shorelines. This may well be one of the reasons why tourism has not developed as intensively here as on other Thai islands.
If you’re looking for peace, authenticity and nature rather than nightlife and crowds, Koh Yao Noi could be the perfect destination.
Everything you need to know about Koh Yao Noi can be found in our detailed travel guide.
Koh Yao Yai – The Hidden Island Near Phuket
Similar to its sister island Koh Yao Noi, Koh Yao Yai remains largely untouched by mass tourism. Here, you’ll discover an island with lush green landscapes, peaceful surroundings and an authentic local atmosphere.
In my opinion, Koh Yao Yai is also home to one of the most beautiful beaches in Thailand. However, like its neighbouring island, Koh Yao Yai has one small drawback: many beaches are less ideal for swimming, with shallow waters and certain rocky sections.
What the island lacks in perfect swimming beaches, it more than makes up for with tranquillity, nature and a slower pace of life. It’s an ideal destination if you want to escape everyday life and enjoy a quieter side of Thailand.
