Favorite beaches


For easy access from Singapore, boat ride over to Bintan and Nikoi is always fun….
Bintan so so but Nikoi so lovely/relaxing but $$ b/c you have to pay per person and meal plan.

Thailand - we have done Phuket and Hua Hin (a couple hours drive from Bangkok) but the beaches are so so….we thought the beaches of Krabi were superior…but the best ones were Koh Samui.  Could be a good option for you and your sister Lindsay but Sarah L we didn't take kids b/c it's so much more $ to buy plane tickets to K. Samui as you know.

Malaysia - I have seen nice photos of our friends who drive up and go to the nearby resorts by ferry, we still want to try these.  We have only done Cherating Beach further up….LOVELY beach but we weren't fans of Club Med after all…crowded, loud, etc.  I am still keen to try Langkawi, everyone says it's lovely.

Vietnam - b/c I love the food and much less popular than Thailand, we really loved MUI NE beach vacation.  It is five hours to Saigon so a bit of a trek…however, I know by going into the other airport there are a lot more beaches there and the Pitmans LOVED it.

I still think the beaches of Perth were so lovely and Lindsay that's only a four-hour flight for you guys.  Has your sister ever been to Oz?

Lastly, PHilippines….I've been to Boracay, way before it was trendy/popular, but I think it might be over the top now….I have on my list EL NIDO and PALAWAN.  All my friends who go have the nicest photos of all the beaches.
