Day 63: Rest day, Koh Lipe

Too good leave

After half a day in Koh Lipe we decided we needed to spend more time here. The beautiful white sand beach, incredible food and fun filled activity options persuaded us we needed to explore further.

We relaxed all morning after swimming, sorting breakfast at the Elephant Bar and booking our ferry ticket to Ko Lanta for tomorrow.

Then another swim and relaxing on the beach before heading off for an afternoon of snorkeling in the surrounding islands.

The coral on the Panta Pattaya was very dead, but a short trip in a long-tail boat and we were snorkeling above thriving coral reefs full of life. The visibility wasn’t great, too much plankton apparently, but there were many fish and incredible coral structures

Not much cycling to do here. Maybe tomorrow. The real cycling doesn’t start again until we hit the mainland at Phuket.
