Ko Yao Noi remains a beautiful island, where most people still believe that the island should be preserved from human degradation and It is often described as one of the last islands in the region to not be overly developed.

Two beautiful islands in the Phang Nga Bay area: Ko Yao Yai and Ko Yao Noi.
Ko Yao is a group of islands between Phuket and Krabi. There are two main islands, Ko Yao Noi ("Small Long Island") and Ko Yao Yai("Big Long Island"), with Ko Yao Noi being the more developed of the two.But in this article I would like to talk more about what made Ko Yao Noi so special to most visitors.
Being one of the biggest islands in the Phang Nga Bay Ko Yao Noi or well known as a "Paradise beach" covers about 50 square kilometres. Ko Yao Noi is mountainous in the centre and has beaches to either side. The East side has beaches suitable for swimming and snorkeling and the West is a picturesque blend of rice flats and mangrove trees. The island is a sanctuary for at least 4 species of hornbills, very commonly seen around.
