Hi loves,

I thought I could write a blog post about my favourite island in Thailand – Koh Lipe.

Koh Lipe is a very small island located near the Malaysia border and is really a insider tip.

There are three main beaches: sunset beach (west), sunrise beach (east) and pattaya beach (south). Koh lipe is compared to other islands in Thailand rather quiet in my opinion, but sooo beautiful. I think Koh Lipe had the most beautiful beaches I have seen in Thailand (you can check my other Thailand posts, if you want to know more) This post will be only about Koh Lipe.

There are so many nice hotels you can book there and since it is Thailand they are not that expensive compared to Europe.

You can find here white-sand beaches, turquoise water and colourful coral reefs.

Pattaya beach is the most popular beach with lots of restaurants and bars, also the hot spot if you don’t like it too relaxing.

Sunrise beach probably the most picturesque beach if you ask me.

Sunset beach is a small beach located in the northern part of the island. This part gives you a typical hippie / relaxing feeling.

I was there in 2019 so at that time you already could find some ATM’s but since it’s a very small island (you can literally walk from one point to the other in like no time) better take some cash with you. You can also find two 7 elevens on walking street which is their main street. Koh Lipe is not a typical touristy place compared to other place in Thailand, because there are a lot of people who have never heard about Koh Lipe.

There are some restaurants and bars with such an amazing view. For happy hour you should try out ten moons hotel on sunrise beach. You will get here two cocktails for like 8$ which is just amazing as you can see on my pictures.

If you want to party all night long Koh Lipe just isn’t for you, because only a handful of bars are open past 11 pm. But if you are seeking an island vibe that’s more laidback and would like to get away from the crowds Koh Lipe is the place.

How to get there: since it is Thailand’s southernmost island and near the Malaysian border it is kind of far from Thailand’s main spots. It took as 4 hours with a speed boat from Phi Phi Island. I am not kidding the ride was a hell of a ride for me lol, but it was worth it even when the ride back to Koh Lanta was even worse hahaha. Maybe it would be better to start from Malaysia if you have the chance since it’s closer.

If you like diving you should definitely try it here since the sea is so beautiful here. Also please don’t miss to hike to the viewpoint on Koh Adang that overlooks Koh Lipe (looks so amazing).

I don’t even mention renting a kayak and explore the islands around Koh Lipe. Just check the weather before. You can also talk to some hotel staff for some more insider tips. The staff at “the cliff Lipe” resort was just amazing.

I have used https://12go.asia/de for booking transportation in Thailand, because I have booked everything in advance, but if you are flexible check the prices for transportation on the island itself since it’s cheaper.

I hope I could give you some insights about Koh Lipe – my favourite island in Thailand. I hope to be back some time.

There are a lot of things you can do in Berlin, but here are some things I did and I think you shouldn’t miss when in Berlin.

1) Buy a ticket for the “S-Bahn” for your entire stay and drive around as much as you can. You can also walk a lot since everything is quite in the centre, well of course it depends on where you are situated, but buy only the zones A and B since C is already far from the centre you won’t need it.

2) Visit the Brandenburg Gate – by day and by night! Hehe and take photos of course.

3) Chill at the Berliner Dome enjoy the atmosphere, very nice in the summer at the fountain.

4) Visit the “Reichstag” Building and ask old Italian women to take photos haha 😀 they will do so but in the end they didn’t took any picture.

5) Have coffee and cake at the Radisson Blu Hotel and don’t think about the bill just admire the aquarium.

6) Visit Checkpoint Charlie and take photos with the fake soldiers and get some kisses hahaha. FAIL 😛

7) Don’t forget to check out the Berlin wall, or the rests of it. 😛

8) Go through the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe and hold a minute of silence.

9) Visit the Pirates Bar in Berlin, I had some drinks there, but the food looked also very good.

10) Visit Kreuzberg – and when you are there eat a Kebap at “Mustafas Gemüsekebap” – Thank me later.

11) Go to the mall of Berlin.

12) EAT! You can find so much delicious food in Berlin haha

13) Go to the “Berliner Biersalon” at Kurfürstendamm and drink a “Berliner Kindl” Beer – I like the green one the most.

14) Check out the “Fernsehturm” – if you want you can also go up and enjoy the view.

15) Go shopping. In Germany the prices are lower than in Austria 😉

What about you, have you been in Berlin? Are there any things I could do the next time I go there? 🙂

Xx L.
