Lo Mo Dai is the closest wild beach to Phi Phi Town. Well, rather as wild – just this beach is not very popular among tourists. By at least, few people walk here, except those people who live on Long Beach – they walk 15 minutes, not more. Inhabitants other parts of Phi Phi Don have to sail here in boats and spend money on it.
The beach as a whole is very nice and cozy, because it is a secluded corner of the “uninhabited” island in beautiful bay. In general, this whole area along the beach is very small and surrounded on all sides by mountains, with the entire coastal the strip that is adjacent to the beach is planted with palm trees.

Beach description
Beautiful place near Phi Phi Town, a great beach for sealer Four hundred meters of sand are bounded right and left. cliffs, and on a large flat area behind Lo Mo Di is broken man-made palm grove, with very tall palm trees. Looks amazing, especially when you get here in the morning, before landing package tourists with excursions.
The sand on the beach is very fine, with fragments of coral, almost white, fluffy (if dry) and for some reason does not muddle the water in the strip at all surf The main emotion on Lo Mo Di is deep, contented exhale I think you yourself know the state when a person plunged into beauty: words are not needed, and delight is transmitted only the number and frequency of sighs.
Lo Mo Di is paradise. The main thing to come here in the high season and not at low tide hours.
Entry, depth and waves
The beach is quite shallow, even at high tide you need to walk off meters, so by 50 so that it is up to your neck. And, nevertheless, swim at Lo Mo Di can. The bottom is clean for hundreds of meters under water until the flat surface does not go sharply into the depth – it begins half-dead coral reef.
In general, this is a classic Pipian beach that looks breathtakingly when high water, and at low tide turns into a lunar surface. On the one hand, it’s cool for kids who pleasure cooked in hot water. On the other – to lovers hanging in the water with your feet down will have to walk far from the shore. Waves On Lo Mo Di happen only in bad weather.
Sun beds and shade
Five or seven years ago, there were only palm trees on this beach, bushes and a bar made of planks where the eternally sleeping Thai lay. Bar still in place, too. In addition to drinks, the bar offers for rent chaise lounges on 100 baht. The scale of rent is decent, sunbeds lined up half the beach. But there are not many people in general. If a do not take into account the influx of organized groups, then in my arrival there was, I think, about 20 people in all.
Shadows a lot, the shadow is different, mostly natural, from palm groves and other deciduous trees whose name I am constantly I forget. If you know Thai trees by name and appearance – send your comments will be useful to all readers.

In general, the infrastructure of the beach, how to say it is the beach. Bar, lounge chairs, taxi cabs that are on duty right here on this everything.
Behind the beach, in the hills there is a large reservoir, and in the depths palm face industrial buildings coconut plantation.
Houses and hotels on the beach

If you go here by land, then at the entrance to the grove you will see a barrier and a sign indicating that it is private territory, though the barrier is open and problems with access I was not. The beach is purely for seals, not for life.
