Thailand: Koh Jum & Koh Pu
Thailand: Koh Jum & Koh Pu
Christine Bertl
The island Koh Jum (part of it is called Koh Pu) is a rather small island next to Krabi. It feels like old Thailand ways before tourism hits. Little traffic, amazing nature (stunning beaches, beautiful forests, variety of wild animals including monkeys) and simple local places. There is no ATM or regular supermarket for fancy supplies but really good seafood and massages next to the beach.

Ao Si beach
@christinebertl
There are multiple small places to get drinks and snacks. At night locals sing and dance, make fire places and grill some food.
