Border Crossing By Boat From Malaysia to Thailand

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

Happy New Year everyone. I'm here on Ko Lipe tonight, going to party like it's 2099. Actually I'll probably just drink some wine, have dinner, edit a video and watch the fireworks later. If you want a taste of New Year's eve craziness in Thailand, here's one of my videos on Ko Samui nine years ago: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWTWl2WurtOcapo Have an amazing 2023 filled with adventure. Cheers. 🍺😎✌

I recommend Koh Mook next. It is also walking island but with less tourism than Koh Lipe. It is good for 2-3 days. Then my all time favorite which is Koh Lanta

[@Matij1004]

you rightly said it: there's nowhere like Thailand 💘 and Koh Lipe looks just like a spectacular place on planet Earth. Hopefully see you around! ✌️

Great little island, my wife and I just returned from Thailand and loved Koh Lipe. Hopefully the weather is a bit better at the moment. Have a great new year's eve!!

Was there in Lipe back in late 80's. Spend a few days staying with the Gypsies (Urak Lawoi) and exploring the island. Such a magical and spiritual place to be... back then. Awesome experience 🙂

Wow. So much change in such a short amount of time. Can't escape it I guess. No longer a sleepy tranquil island. Thanks for sharing.

[@brothersman524]

When I was staying in Langkawi for 1 week back in Jan 2017, I actually did a day trip to Koh Lipe from Telaga Harbour and spent around 6 hours before heading back to Langkawi. However, in Feb 2018 I did stay for 3 nights in Koh Lipe on my 3rd Thailand trip after staying in Krabi (Ao Nang) for 5 nights, then Koh Yao Noi for 1 night, then Koh Phi Phi for 3 nights, then Koh Lanta for 1 night before finally staying in Koh Lipe for the 3 nights

[@adayinthelifeofadrian]

Happy to see you back in Thailand 🇹🇭 again! Ko phi phi is also one of my favourite places in Thailand and it is very popular but that’s for a good reason because it’s absolutely beautiful and with the new and revamped Maya Bay close by it’s a winner. I had no idea you could catch a boat from Malaysia to Thailand. I’ll put that on my to do list. Bring on the next video 😊

[@HuckleberryDread]

You can take the ferry to some quieter special Islands from Lipe. Trang Islands and many other less known ones on the way up to Koh Lanta/ Railay

Thanks Gabe, you've inspired me to replicate this exact trip by boat as I've never been to Langkawi or Ko Lipe and it seems like the best way to do both at once.

For sure, it's a much longer boat ride from elsewhere in Thailand.

Gabe - How often do you go back to old videos and look at and even respond to comments? On occasion I have seen comments from you years after a video. With the volume of your output it must be hard to go back to something from years before. Happy New Year. Steve

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

The comments all come in on one page chronologically, so comments posted recently on an old video will show up with the comments on new videos. And sometimes I'm on an old video for some random reason and go through the comments.

[@ryanhardy12]

Maybe I missed Gabe purchasing it but I didn't see if the ticketing process was pretty straight forward getting to Ko Lipe? Looks like a big ferry then onto a smaller taxi boat.

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

I bought the ticket from a ticket office a couple days earlier for 160 Malaysian ringgit which is $36 USD. And yes a 90 minute ferry ride to the island and then small boat ride from the boat to the beach, because there's no pier for the larger boat to dock at.

[@CharlieChaplinVideos]

16:06 Pattaya beach? 🤔

[@erikjanse3994]

Any particular reason why you did not take the boat from Telega Harbour Marina, Langkawi to Koh Lipe? At least it is a shorter boat trip as well as a shorter taxi drive from Pantai Cenang to the harbour, instead of going to the yeti in Kuah

[@GabrielTravelerVideos]

I actually explained that when I was filming, then cut it out of the video during editing because it seemed a bit irrelevant. Basically it was because I was curious to see Kuah and the Eagle Square, and also there were more restaurants to choose from around there.

[@robcanad]

Looks a bit overrun by tourists, not quite the paradise I imagined. Maybe there are some secluded beaches on the other side of the island.

[@robcanad]

I was hoping you would stay in Malaysia longer, very few cover that island, whereas Thailand is saturated with KZbinrs.
