Chilled out and picturesque, this island getaway is the perfect place to escape for an idyllic beach break. Wander through fishing villages, discover temples or swim under refreshing waterfalls.

Take a day trip to Thailand's largest national marine park, home to the beautiful Emerald Lake. There's the option to head out on a sea canoeing trip, or if that seems like too much hard work, just relax with a cool drink on the beach.
