About Bamboo Island

Bamboo Island is small, low and ringed by some of the whitest sand in the Andaman. The water stays shallow and clear a long way out, which makes the snorkelling here some of the easiest and most rewarding in the Phi Phi area.

Because it sits beyond Phi Phi, Bamboo Island is best combined with a full-day Phi Phi tour from Ao Nang — a great finishing stop where you can swim, snorkel and relax on the sand before heading back.

Highlights

  • Some of the whitest sand in the Andaman
  • Clear, shallow water far from shore
  • Excellent, easy snorkelling
  • A perfect add-on to a Phi Phi day

How we do this tour

We arrange this as a private trip from Ao Nang on a longtail boat, speedboat or our private catamaran — whichever suits your group, budget and the sea conditions. Your itinerary and timing are built around you, not a fixed group schedule.

Pricing: We quote authentic local prices based on your group size, the boat you choose and the season. Optional extras (private chef, romantic set-up, extra stops) are quoted on request — no inflated tourist mark-ups.

Good to know

  • Part of Hat Noppharat Thara–Mu Ko Phi Phi national park — entry fees apply for foreign visitors (typically 400 THB per adult), payable locally.
  • Usually visited together with Phi Phi as a full day.
  • Bring reef-safe sunscreen — there's little natural shade.

Best for: Snorkellers and beach-lovers combining it with a Phi Phi full-day trip.  ·  Travel time: Beyond Phi Phi — usually a full-day trip from Ao Nang

Lovely houses that were perfect for us as a family! We really appreciated the hosts, who were welcoming and helpful with everything. And the place was in the middle of nature and offered a view of the Buddha! We loved both the accommodation and the pool.

A wonderful stay. The best villa for a family of 10 people. Spacious, clean, with top-quality service provided from start to finish. The owner and co-owner were absolutely fantastic — any issue was resolved immediately. If I had another family celebration, this is the place I'd go. Thank you.
