The big island
Koh Yao Yai is the larger of the two sister islands. Its scale is part of its character: longer roads, broad green interiors and coastlines that seem to keep unfolding.
ABOUT KOH YAO YAI
A larger island.
A quieter horizon.
Across the narrow channel from Koh Yao Noi lies an island with its own scale, pace and possibilities.TWO SISTER ISLANDS · TWO DISTINCT EXPERIENCES
Part of Koh Yao.
Entirely itself.
Koh Yao Yai shares deep cultural and family ties with Koh Yao Noi, yet the visitor experience feels different. It is larger, more spread out and still remarkably open—an island best explored without haste.
02
Life beside the shore
The island is not a resort stage. Small beach places, local tables and working communities sit naturally beside the sea. The pleasure lies in slowing down enough to notice them.
03
Space to breathe
Quiet stretches of sand, clear shallows and green headlands give Koh Yao Yai a wonderfully unhurried rhythm. Some of its most memorable places are also its simplest.

The islands
beyond the island.
Koh Yao Yai also makes a natural starting point for days on the water—toward limestone formations, small islands and the wider seascape between Phuket and Krabi.
