About Koh Yao Yai
Koh Yao Yai is the larger of the two main Koh Yao islands, situated between Phuket and Krabi. The island is known for its peaceful atmosphere, traditional communities, rubber plantations, coconut groves, and long stretches of relatively quiet coastline. Visitors can explore local villages, relax at secluded beaches, take boat trips around Phang Nga Bay, and enjoy spectacular sunsets over the Andaman Sea. Its natural scenery and slower pace make Koh Yao Yai an appealing alternative to Thailand's more crowded island destinations.
Best time to visit: December to April
