Phi Phi Island Activities

Phi Phi Island is, when you think about it, and extremely open-air sort of place. Just about the only form of activity that takes place indoors behind closed doors is when your head hits the pillow.

So it’s no wonder that the area abounds in exciting things to do, both on and off the island, above and below sea level.

Here are some of the best activities available.

Other Activities

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesFishing

First off, it has to be said that no, you won’t take your catch home to cook as fishing around Phi Phi operates on a ‘catch-and-release’ policy. That said, it’s still a lot of fun to pitch your wit, and strength against a black marlin, giant travelly or a sailfish and there’s no lack of them in the Andaman. Wahoo, too, are also common from June to October. You can charter a boat with friends or hire a longtail. Still, the biggest fish are quite a way out so if you’re serious about this sport get a sport fishing boat.
Sak Fishing half-day trips: Morning 09:00 – 13:00 Afternoon 13:00 – 18:30

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesRock Climbing

For a sport that combine physical challenge with great views it’d be hard to beat rock climbing, especially on picturesque Phi Phi. For beginners and intermediate climbers Phi Phi offers far more concentration of climbs in the range of 5s to 6cs. Tonsai Tower of Phi Phi offers close to 25 routes in that range, single and multi-pitch alike. If you're a novice, or a proficient climber there is plenty to do on Phi Phi. Rental equipment is available as are guides and instructors.

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesCliff Jumping

This new ‘sport’ is taking off in a big way on Phi Phi due to the abundance of fantastic jumping venues. Not without its risks, Cliff Jumping should be approached with an organised tour and participants should try lower jumps, starting from three metres gradually working to a 20-metre leap into the briny. It should be noted that combination tours are available that include snorkeling and cliff jumps.

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesThai Cooking Classes

Thai food is gaining popularity around the world but getting hold of the ingredients to cook it for yourself is not an easy task. This is the essence of Pum Cooking School in Central Ton Sai – to teach you how to use herbs and spices correctly and how to store them as well as of course to cook Thai food. There are three sessions daily – at 11:00, 16:00, and at 18:00 and you can choose from 90-minute, 180-minute and four-hour classes and longer, the recipes studied largely depend on your choice. Written about in the Guardian and mentioned on BBC, Pum’s is professional, witty and lots of fun as well as being educational.

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesYoga

Teacher Keira holds yoga classes on the roof of Carlito’s Bar every day except Friday between 17:30 and 19:00. The classes are intimate – never more than ten people – and Keira is a fully qualified teacher. Interestingly enough, Keira compares the deep breathing exercises yoga employs with scuba diving. Now there’s a marriage made in heaven.

Phi Phi Island ActivitiesBooze Cruise

Five hours of ‘free’ unlimited boozing aboard a ship on a tropical afternoon is some people’s idea of heaven. This tour features visits to Monkey Beach, goes cliff jumping, Viking Cave, Loh Samah, Maya Bay and, presuming participants are still conscious, takes in the sunset. Of course the booze is not actually ‘free’ – it’s included in the price of the ticket and the idea of cliff jumping while full of Red Bull and vodka is ridiculously dangerous but the fun factor potential is way up there.
