Arriving to the beach in Maya Bay early paid off with great opportunities for photos sans speedboats.
I love this photo looking back at “the beach” from the longboat.
Maya Bay.
This one is of us approaching a beachless bay surrounded by tall limestone walls. I thought it was prettier than Maya Bay to be honest. And a great place for a swim!
If only my landing was as perfect as the water!

My husband (Justin) and I leave on September 30th for Rome, my brother is getting married in Italy in October. We have always been outdoor enthusiasts, but we are about to attempt something truly wild. We are leaving from Italy with our backpacks and plan to travel to various countries for a year or so.
Your pictures are amazing! :grin: I can only hope that Justin and I will also have an amazing adventure as you guys have been experiencing.
