Fondly referred as the "Pearl of
the Andaman", the island possess remarkable beauty
with tropical hillsides in the north and along the south
and west.
Once renown for its tin mines and rubber
plantations, visitors now arrive looking for a place to
relax and explore the scenery.
You can find rubber plantations but gone
are the tin mines. The popular beaches are Patong, Kata
and Karon, situated on the western part of the island
with tidal mud flats in the east.
In all, the island is 530 sq km in size
and is large enough to be a provincial center. Commuting
by car is easy and the roads are generally quite good.
If you plan to explore the island by car, beware of motorcycles
especially in the city centers.
