Hi all, as you can see I'm new to the forum and new to travelling so am wanting to seek some advise from all of those in the know!! My girlfriend and I are booked to go to Australia for a year on the 17th of October 12 from Dublin. We are doing a 2wk stop in phuket on our way. Initially i was thinking about spending those 2 weeks on Ko Phi Phi Island. Would this be adviseable as i know there is so much more to do and see. I'm wanting the 2wks to be all about relaxing on the beach and of course a few nights on the town but more of the first. I have spent hours trawling the internet and seem to be getting nowhere. Any advise is really appreciated and thanks to all those in advance.
If you want to do nothing but just relax around a beach and do a little snorkling etc... Then Phi Phi Islands is perfect, but if you want to party and go nightclubing then Phi Phi islands is not the place for that. The Phi Phi Islands is very chilled out place for everyone and in the evening most people just go to one of the resturants on the beach and watch a fire display, sometimes performers are travellers & locals then go onto one of a few bars scattered around the Island to knock a few drinks back. NO Clubbing, Phi Phi is very small place and everything is in walking distance. But beautiful place to hang out for a few weeks. If you want to party then head for Patong on Phuket Islands.

I would split the time in Thailand up do a few days Phi Phi and maybe a few in Patong , Karon or Kata. Patong is very busy and great for a night out . Karon or Kata is alot quieter and the beaches are great . If you look at my profile you can read my blog and see my trips to Thailand which may give you a few ideas.
