The Phi Phi Islands are a group of islands in Thailand, administratively part of Krabi Province, lying between the large island of Phuket and the Krabi coastline. Ko Phi Phi Don is the largest and only inhabited island of the group, while the smaller Ko Phi Phi Le is known for its beaches. The remaining islands, including Bida Nok, Bida Nai and Ko Mai Phai, are largely bare limestone rocks rising out of the sea, and the group is reached by ferry, speedboat or long-tail boat from Krabi town or ports in Phuket province.
