Ko Thap

Ko Thap is a small limestone islet in the Mu Ko Poda group off Ao Nang in Mueang Krabi District, Krabi Province, Thailand. Part of Hat Noppharat Thara-Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park, it is famous for the Thale Waek sandbar that at low tide connects it to Ko Mor and Ko Gai (Chicken Island). The island features white sand, clear turquoise water, fringing coral and karst scenery, and is visited on standard Four Islands boat tours from Ao Nang and Krabi Town.

Visitors arrive by longtail boat or speedboat as part of a Four Islands tour. Ko Thap is a small, uninhabited islet with a narrow white-sand beach, limestone rocks and clear shallow water. At low tide a white sandbar (Thale Waek) emerges connecting Ko Thap to Ko Mor and Ko Gai, allowing visitors to walk between islands. There are no buildings or permanent structures. Activities are limited to walking on the sandbar, swimming, snorkeling over fringing reef, sunbathing and photography of karst scenery.
