| 説明 | I am on the Phi Phi Islands speedboat tour and we have just finished a long lunch stop at Coral Beach. Now my tummy was full, and I had downed a couple of beers as well, and would have appreciated a bit of a long ride till the next stop, but no, it came painfully quickly! The first post lunch stop on the tour was this one: on Koh Mai Pai which literally translates from the Thai as Bamboo Island. We are greeted by this large array of warning notices as we enter the island. The name Bamboo Island is actually pretty strange as while the is covered in casuar trees there is not a sprig of bamboo to be seen on the island. (another blog said there are a few bamboo trees sprinkled in between the casuar trees but I do not recall having spotted any). Ko Mai Pai is a low-lying island which boats of a clean, white sand beach all around the island as well as a splendid coral reef which offers good snorkeling. I read on someone's blog that Bamboo Island is heart shaped- now that was not pointed out to us when we got off the boat, and it was difficult to make out once were were walking on the island. It is said that the best snorkeling at Bamboo Island is on Hin Klang, a submerged reef ½ mile to the SW. This was not a snorkeling stop, more of a place to stretch our legs and probably have a coffee, and most of us were pretty tired anyway, getting on and off the boat, so all of us were merely walking around- I had a coffee. Some of our boat mates simply stayed on the boat. Ko Mai Pai or Bamboo Island is a nice stopover for the day, as night anchorage is permitted only in settled conditions during the NE monsoon! I don't think tour boats anchor here by night anyway, as almost all of them stop by here on day tours, so that's another bit of useless information- thought I'd mention it anyway.
