Hey All,
I've spent the past few days going through this forum and I have to admit I'm absolutely confused about which Island to visit for my honeymoon at the end of December. After a few days in BK & Changmai we intend to head south for ~5days of beach relaxation. I'm a semi-experienced vacation diver while the fiance is a new diver (just got certified the past year in Belize - she loved it).
Since she has few dives under her belt easier dives would probably be best, and since this is a honeymoon places that are relatively close to shore are good too - I understand the later isn't a strong suit of Thailand but I would say 15min boat rides would be desirable...
As far as other aspect we are looking for:
1) Good weather (this will be end of Dec)
2) Not too crowded (we know this is super high season)
3) Away from it all but not isolated - maybe a small town to be able to walk into but not Thailand version of Miami Beach...
4) Some other activities to be done (though I don't imagine we will end up doing much)...
We will probably be staying at a resort of some sort so that may solve some of these issues (e.g. Phuket can be crowded but I know you can stay away from it too)...
Thanks for answering a question that I know has been answered in 101 different ways already!
