We got back to Ao Nang in the morning after the homestay and were directly transferred to the docks to get on our speedboat (probably the slowest speedboat in Ao Nang) for an island cruise.

Our first stop at was at  Maya Bay – or simply The Beach (yes … the one from the film).

Thhis stop was followed by a snorkeling opportunity in Lohsamah Bay, from where we continued to infamous Ko Phi Phi for our lunch stop.

In the afternoon the cruise continued to Monkey Beach; the last stop – before heading back – was on James Bond Island. While being here the weather suddenly turned bad … with heavy rain on the way back and us being soaked.
