Top 10 Stunning Photo Spots on Koh Phi Phi Don You Shouldn’t Miss
When you find yourself surrounded by the breathtaking scenery of the Phi Phi Islands — especially the famous Koh Phi Phi Don — it’s impossible to resist capturing those perfect shots. Whether you’re a professional photographer or just love sharing your travels on social media, this guide lists 10 must-visit photo spots on Koh Phi Phi Don that guarantee spectacular views and unforgettable memories.
Loh Dalum Beach
Start with the lively Loh Dalum Beach, one of the most popular Phi Phi Don attractions. This beach is ideal for daytime photos featuring soft white sand, emerald water, and distant limestone cliffs as a backdrop. For those who love beach fashion, every corner here is perfect for that dreamy bikini shot under the tropical sun.
Tonsai BayLocated just a short walk from most hotels on Phi Phi Don, Tonsai Bay is the island’s main harbor and a hub of activity. Capture the energy of the island with photos of colorful longtail boats, turquoise waters, and the vibrant local scene. This spot is perfect for travelers who love street-style travel photography with a tropical twist.
Loh Ba Kao Bay
If you prefer a peaceful atmosphere, Loh Ba Kao Bay offers a more secluded side of the island. With fewer tourists, you can freely compose your shots without crowds in the background. The palm trees, clear blue sky, and calm sea create a postcard-perfect scene that looks straight out of the Maldives.
Monkey Beach
While not directly on Phi Phi Don’s main strip, Monkey Beach is easily reachable by kayak from Loh Dalum. You’ll find limestone cliffs, turquoise waters, and of course — playful monkeys adding charm (and mischief) to your photos. Just keep your valuables secure — the monkeys here can be cheeky models!
Phi Phi Viewpoint 1
One of the most famous Phi Phi Don viewpoints, this spot offers a panoramic view of the island’s hourglass shape. The first viewpoint is relatively easy to reach and gives you a wide shot of both Tonsai and Loh Dalum Bays, perfect during sunrise or sunset.
Laem Tong Beach
A hidden gem on the northern tip of the island, Laem Tong is peaceful and less crowded. Its fine white sand and crystal-clear water make it one of the best hidden photo spots on Phi Phi Don. Occasionally, longtail boats anchor here, creating a picturesque foreground for your photos.
Phi Phi Viewpoint 2
If you’re up for a challenge, continue your climb to Viewpoint 2. The higher elevation rewards you with a breathtaking panoramic view of Phi Phi Don. It’s a favorite among photographers for sunset shots — though you’ll need to arrive early to secure a good spot during high season.
Nui Beach
Nicknamed the “Secret Beach” of Phi Phi Don, Nui Beach is a hidden paradise perfect for sunset photography. The rocky foreground adds depth to your shots, and during late afternoon, the light creates a warm, golden tone that’s simply magical.
Phi Phi Viewpoint 3
If you’re wondering where to watch the most beautiful sunset on Koh Phi Phi Don, the answer is here — Viewpoint 3. From this top-level viewpoint, you can see the entire island and surrounding sea, glowing under the evening sun. The breeze is cool and relaxing — a perfect place to wait for that golden-hour masterpiece.
Loh Moo Dee Beach
End your photo adventure at Loh Moo Dee Beach, one of the quietest beaches on Koh Phi Phi Don. With powdery white sand and incredibly clear water, it’s perfect for in-water photos or relaxed beach portraits. Morning and late morning light work best here before the sun gets too strong.

Talay Waek Krabi is a sandbar that links three islands: Koh Kai, Koh Tup, and Koh Mor. The sandbar shows up when the tide goes out, so you can walk across the sea floor from one island to the next. It sits off Ao Nang in Krabi province. It looks best at the lowest tide, which usually lands near the full moon and the new moon.
Railay EcoThe boat from Krabi to each island takes a different amount of time. The closest spot, Railay, is just a 10 to 15 minute longtail boat ride. The farthest, Phi Phi, takes about 45 minutes by speedboat or 1 to 2 hours by big ferry. The time changes with distance, boat type, and the waves that day. This guide pulls every Krabi boat route into one place, near islands and far ones. It's all in easy tables. We also tell you which boat fits each route, and how to catch your round on time. So you can plan your island day before you even leave your hotel.
Railay EcoA good family tour in Krabi matches the activities to your kids' ages and keeps the day from getting too tiring. The secret is simple: start with calm inner bays, easy beaches, and short boat rides. Kids can swim safely, and parents get to relax instead of worrying all day. This guide covers which activities suit little kids and which suit teens, what makes a family trip tiring, and a safety checklist to pack before you go.
Railay EcoA private tour in Krabi means you book the whole boat just for your group. You don't share it with strangers. It costs more per person than a group tour, but you pick the islands, set the times, and never wait for a big crowd. The price depends on group size, boat type, half or full day, and the season. Here's how it differs from a group tour, what a private tour includes, who it's best for, what sets the price, and how to get a good rate.
Railay EcoKrabi's southwest monsoon runs from May to October. The Andaman sea gets bigger waves, it rains more often, and the water turns greener and less clear than the dry months. But that doesn't mean you can't go. Inner bays and land spots stay calm and fun. And many days the rain is just a short afternoon burst, then the sky clears again. Here's the upside most people miss: way fewer crowds, cheaper rooms and tours, lush green hills, and dramatic skies you won't see in the dry season. This guide covers what monsoon in Krabi is really like, where you can still go, what to skip on rough days, and how to make your trip worth it.
Railay EcoKrabi's golden season runs from January to April. This is the dry season, so the skies are clear, the sea is calm, and almost every island tour runs every day. It's the best time of year for clear water, both for snorkeling and diving. Boats reach Phi Phi and Maya Bay with no problem, and the sunsets are crisp every evening. This guide covers why these months are the golden window, how each month from January to April feels different, and how to book smart before rooms and tours fill up. It's for anyone who wants to enjoy Krabi's dry season to the fullest.
