12th to 13th Dec. - Raya Island = Paradise Island

After one night at Kata beach in Phuket, we went to Raya Island. The pure paradise island, 30 min south by speed boat. Cristal clear water, palm gardens, colourful fishes surrounding you in the water - so perfect to be there.

We rented a paradise bungalow in the low price segment (1500 baht per night) direclty beside the 20.000 baht homes.










A little more expensive than our last accomodations, but definitly worth it. Snorkling, and relaxing at the beach with iguanas and eagles been guests in the reastaurant aswell.






13th Dec., afternoon, we were collected by the speed boat again and tried to get a bus to the other side of the island. Right now we are staying on the Andaman See side and want to go to the Gulf of Thailand side, which is supposed to be a little bit colder, but has not been explored by us right now.










Pitty, the last bus to Sura Tani left at 3:30pm already, so we had to stay in Phuket town for a night. Not a really spectacular place to be but cheap - 300Baht per night, near the center and the night market.

Got a haircut for 100 Baht (2 Euro) by pointing at a photograf, she knew hot to cut my hair. Hairy story, but a good ending.
