BEST TIME TO VISIT KOH LIPE

Koh Lipe or Ko Lipe is a small island off the Andaman Coast of Southern Thailand. It is an island in the group of Adang-Rawi Archipelago of the Strait of Malacca in Satun Province, which is also very close to Langkawi Island Malaysia (approximately 59 km). Ko Lipe is surrounded by uninhabited Butong archipelago islands, just outside Tarutao National Park. This L-shape tiny island is just about 3.5 km in length and 2.5 km in width where you can complete your island tour by walking within 4 to 5 hours.

Even though, Koh Lipe is small in size & with just less than 1,000 local original residents, they are receiving almost 400,000 tourists around the world yearly. In the past decade, the island was described as “the last paradise on earth” when nobody notice the beauty of Koh Lipe. Just in the past few years, the island was flooded with backpackers and causing rapid development on the island. With the growing number number of visitors, potentially it will become another Patong Beach (Phuket) or Walking Street (Pattaya) in near future.
