Koh Lipe: My Own Paradise on Earth (part 2)

Continued from part 1..

For snorkeling around Koh Lipe, there are 2 options to choose: closer or further circles. We chose the further circle and paid 1,500 baht total  (US$50, one boat can carry around 8 passengers). The further circle took around 6 hours. We left the resort at 9 a.m and returned around 3 p.m.  The weather was gloomy in the morning but we were very lucky that the sun came out in the afternoon. Under the water was so much more beautiful when there was sunshine.

Let's go...
The long-tailed boat that we took for our trip. 
Uncle Thep was our boat driver and guide, he's awesome!

Koh Lipe: My Own Paradise on Earth (part 1)

This is it! A place I can call my own paradise on earth. Nooooo, I am not exaggerating, I really do feel that way. Koh Lipe is amazingly beautiful, great snorkeling sites, great people, and great fresh seafood. What more could I want for a great holiday?
