Learn more about hotels in Koh Lipe

Nestled in the Adang-Rawi Archipelago of the Strait of Malacca, Koh Lipe is a tiny island with a rich and fascinating history. Its native name, Pulau Nipis, true to its translation 'thin island', perfectly captures its slender shape. The island, on the periphery of the Tarutao National Marine Park and neighbouring larger islands of Ko Adang and Ko Rawi, was initially settled by the Urak Lawoi’ people.

Today, Koh Lipe thrives on its bustling tourism sector, its white talcum beaches, and exceptional scuba diving experiences drawing globetrotters from all corners. With three main beaches - Sunset Beach, Sunrise Beach, and Pattaya Beach - each offering unique experiences, Koh Lipe promises a slice of paradise for every taste. However, it's the island's crystal-clear waters that fascinate most, boasting 25% of the world's tropical fish species, hence making it a popular hotspot, particularly among Generation X and older generations seeking calm and relaxation.

Like every paradise, Koh Lipe also faces challenges. The rapid development to cater to tourism has led to a strain on the island's natural resources, raising concerns about waste management and wildlife conservation. Therefore, visitors are required to pay a National Park admission fee and an environmental fee upon their arrival - a small contribution towards preserving the island's natural beauty.

When to visit Koh Lipe

Choosing the perfect time to visit Koh Lipe can depend on a host of factors, ranging from weather and crowd size to budget considerations. High season, from November to early May, sees the island at its busiest, with mid-December to end of February being the peak. On the other hand, the low season, from June to September, offers a quieter retreat, with October serving as a transition month, when the weather starts improving and visitor numbers begin to climb.

Regardless of when you visit, you are sure to fall in love with Koh Lipe's stunning beaches, clear azure waters, and easy-going vibe. So, whether you're planning to dive into its rich marine life, kayak around the island, or merely soak up some sun on the sand, remember every day in Koh Lipe promises a new adventure!
