Recently, my dive master Ben sent me a picture of a serene sunrise in Koh Lipe, Thailand. It was enough to make me plan for my own five-day trip to the island.
Since Koh Lipe is near the Malaysian border in the north of the peninsular, I decided to take a ferry there instead of flying. Booking a ticket for the ferry was easy enough as it was off-peak season and therefore not many tourists were around. The picturesque drive from the Klang Valley to Kedah along the North-South highway, adorned with padi fields and lush greenery, preceded my early arrival at the ferry terminal in Kuala Kedah.
