Maya Bay, The Beach, Thailand

Thailand The Beach

Hey, i wanted to share my experience and photo's of my visit to Maya Bay, the featured exotic beach in the national park of Thailand.

Anyone who has been there will agree with me how jaw dropping the landscape is!!!!

I have uploaded some pics that i took, believe me, it was hard to get a camera onto the island, because from the boat to the island you have to swim in water, and the only way (if you do not carry any kind of waterproof bag) is to hold the camera above your head whilst feet paddling to the island! You are not warned of this prior to the visit!


Here is a small archive of photo's taking you step by step through island.....

The Entrance way onto the 'the beach'

Ok so now we make our way toward the forest

Maya Bay please

Beautiful Landscape Thai Fore

the jungle is vibrant!

Thats me on the beech, it was at a touristy time, but when the bay is clear its amazing! You can get packages from Kho Phi Phi island that lets you spend the night on the actual Maya Bay!

This is a must visit if you ever journey out to Thailand!

The amount of activities you can do around this area is brilliant, look at my small list for a taste of what you can do...... and what i did! Good times.....

• Snorkelling
• Shark Diving
• Coral Exploration
• Boat Trips
• Visiting Monkey Island
• Diving
• Jet Ski, Paragliding

The island you leave to reach the Maya Bay island is Kho Phi Phi. Here you will find all your needs for everything you want to do while you stay on the island. Make sure you shop around, as you will always get it cheaper somewhere else if you look right and don't jump at the first sight of what you think is a good deal for a trip or activity. I made this mistake and spent 1200 bhat (roughly £22) on a boat+snorkelling trip when later i found out from the people i met on the boat, that they got there's for 400 bhat! Damn lol. Trip was worth it though anyway..... 

I will be updating this post as i go along, there are still many photo's to put up, and stories to tell.

Thailand Rawai Muay Thai Camp 2010

Thailand Muay Thai Camp!

The Ancient Art of the 8 Limbs
Phuket Rawai 2010 August- October

I took a few months out last year to visit Thailand, a destination that i have always been intrigued about, and since many years ago, always wanted to visit, and explore and learn about the culture and the Thai's way of living.
Now taking into consideration that Muay Thai was born in Thailand, and is known as the countries national sport, i decided to sign my self up and visit one of the Muay Thai training camps, and learn the ancient art.

The picture above is of me (centre) with my Muay Thai tainers after my 2 month stay at Rawai.
My 2 months at the camp, Rawai Muay Thai, was with out doubt the best experience i have ever had in life, the people i met, the physical fitness i gained, the confidence, the people and trainers.

I trained Muay Thai every day for 2 months in the heat of the tropical Thailand, and learnt alot, from basic technique and body conditioning. I have attached some pics of me training with some of my Muay Thai trainers, most of the trainers have had 200+ fights, and started this art at the ages of 4-5 yrs old.
The owner of the Muay Thai camp was a former world Lumpinee Thai boxing champion!

Me & Chang, he is small, but hell he is fast!

Most of the pictures i couldn't put up because i'm pulling some funny faces.

Will be updating furter soon, keep posted.
