🏝️It is an island that Songkhla people know well, but not many people have visited. The island is only 10 minutes from the shore. How could we miss it? If you have a chance, invite your friends to go. There are many boats available, with many prices. The one we used was 'Bangki'. 📞We called to book and set a date and time. Start by boarding the boat at Hua Phaya Nak at 9 am. 🕘 When we got close to the island, the boatman told us stories and history. We went in November. The tide was high, so we couldn't make it through the cave. We didn't do many activities, except for hiking up to see the view from above. The boatman led us up. The path wasn't too difficult, but be careful not to slip. There were ropes for us to hold onto at intervals along the way. The view from above was very beautiful. Seeing it made us feel less tired. It was a change of scenery to take a long-tail boat to see the island. #NaturalAttractions #KohNuKohMaew #SongkhlaAttractions #SongkhlaTravel
