Monkey Beach!

If you like monkeys then Monkey Beach in Phi Phi Island located in Thailand might just be the place for you to visit! Monkey Beach is located on the southwestern side of Tonsai Bay, it is a 150m-long strip of white sand fringed by water. The backside of the beach is a steep limestone cliff covered in vegetation that offers monkeys a comfortable habitat, which is how the beach got its name from.   Monkey Beach is not only known for its monkeys but also for being a great snorkeling spot, who would’ve thought.   If you ever get the chance to visit Monkey beach just make sure not to feed the monkeys or get too close because they are wild animals and it has been common for them to bite or scratch visitors in the past. http://www.phiphi.phuket.com/attractions/monkey-beach.htm
