Paradisicial Koh Jum

Posted by admin on May 8th, 2009 filed in attractions, beach life, holidays, sightseeing, travel tips

Positioned in the Andaman Sea about 15.5 miles south of Krabi, Koh Jum is a laid-back bungalow island that is also known as Pooh (Crab) Island. The small island’s rugged and rocky northern part houses several small rubber plantations and jungles while mainly screw palms and casuarinas trees grow on the relatively flat southern part.

Six fabulous unspoiled beaches can be found along Koh Jum’s western coastline. It is also here where the resorts and bungalows are located. Lodging options on the island range from basic backpacker accommodation to luxury beach-bungalows. There is something for every type of traveller here.

Koh Jum can best be reached by taking the ferry from Krabi to Lanta, which makes an en-route stop at Koh Jum. This service leaves Krabi twice daily. You could also take the taxi-boat from Krabi’s Laem Kruat to Koh Jum. More on Koh Jum, Thailand
