Let’s Go Island Hopping in Thailand: A Photo Essay
Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links; more info here.
Today, and every day, I dream of island hopping in Thailand.
I crave sunshine, the clearest of azure waters, and untouched yellow sand that stretches as far as the eye can see. I long to see those otherworldly island formations that hover along the horizon, promising endless adventures, and the familiar, bright-colored fishing boats that make for the best photo opportunities.
These memories of Thailand cloud my mind as I struggle through long hours of school and work… Because, let's face it, I would much rather be in Thailand. But I don't let these memories get me down; instead, they serve as motivation, reminding me that another adventure is always just around the corner!
It's been a few months now since we've visited Phuket, and island hopped to dreamy paradises like as Koh Phing Kan, Koh Phi Phi Leh, Koh Yao Noi, but I still have plenty of beachy photos to share.
Even though you're likely stuck at work or in class, allow your mind to take a vacation. Come with me; let's take off to a warm, sunny island, somewhere out in the Andaman Sea.
Island Hopping in Thailand
Lazing the days away on the world's most beautiful, deserted beaches, mixed with bouts of pad Thai and Singha lagers, sounds like a distant dream right now. Because it is. But sometimes, escapism is exactly what we need.
Over to you! Have you ever been island hopping in Thailand? Which Thai islands are your favorite, and why? If you haven't been to Thailand, do you dream of visiting someday?
I seriously feel like I should be looking at a National Geographic magazine spread with some of these photos, they’re just so beautiful! I just went to Puerto Rico and had some incredibly relaxing beach days, and I totally agree with you–when you’re stuck at work or stressed with school, sometimes a total break from your schedule is all you need (even if it’s just by looking at some amazing blog posts!)

I so needed this post! It’s the first day of spring, but the temperature feels like -6 C with the wind chill here. I definitely need to escape to a hot and sunny beach. I would love to go island hopping in Thailand someday, it looks so beautiful there! Enjoy your weekend.

You don’t ever have to ask me twice about any place with gorgeous blue waters and white sand! :) I haven’t been to Thailand yet, but I want to go SO badly! Did you find it difficult to get around? How bad was the language barrier?
Oh I certainly feel better looking at those pictures! Thailand was part of our honeymoon, so it will always have a very special place in my heart!:-)
Lovely photos! I need to go there like right now.

Ohhh this looks like paradise. I would love to go to Thailand so much! Ko Tapu is something I have wanted to see for forever.
It really is. Ko Tapu was definitely a highlight for us. We were there in the morning before all the other tourists arrived, too, so we had the place all to ourselves!
You have given complete travel information to hoping island in Thailand. Interesting pictures following your article to show other travelers. Lovely article to read more from you. Best all
It’s been years since my feet last touched Thailand soil – no sand as my trip was void of beaches. Oh how I regret such foolery. And now, upon seeing these sublime pictures, I am much more determined to revisit this land. Why do I feel like riding a dragon into battle right now? You guys must have subliminal messages hidden in these pictures!!! Great photography and what a great trip :)
That sounds like a great plan. I’ll give you my itinerary for inland Thailand and you give me your beach itinerary. Note: my itinerary included stealing green mangos from people’s backyard with a giant poking stick. I’m not sure if you’d be up for that :)
wow beautiful photos! it’s my dream to visit Thailand one day =o)
