BACKPACKING KOH LIPE 🌴 Diving and Exploring Thailand's Most Southern Island

- BACKPACKING THAILAND 🇹🇭 EPISODE 21 📍KOH LIPE
I made it to Thailand's most southern island - Koh Lipe! This isn't a super popular one on the backpacker trail (probably because of how far away it is) but I was super keen to make the special effort to visit as I had heard how beautiful is was. With my friend Sean, we got a long tail boat to the neighbouring island of Koh Adang to hike to mountain and get an amazing view of Koh Lipe. We also did some scuba diving at 8 mile rocks which was incredible - my favourite dive that I have done in Thailand so far! We stayed in a dorm room at The Chic Lipe boutique luxury hostel. Next stop - Railay!

ABOUT ME🙋🏻♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these RUclips videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackingbananas.com/pr...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

Sean/Shawn is a whole vibe. He seems very fun.🤘🏼🌈🏝💓🍄🌻🌞✨
Shaun is the man!!!!
Out of all of the friends you've met and/or brought along with you on your trips, I have to say Sean, Cole, and Karen are my favorites. They all seem super open to adventure, much like yourself, and the best sort of people to bring along on an adventure. I hope you'll be able to travel with Sean again sometime.
As I said Chris you are presenting the beauty of Thailand no other vlogger does I watch lots..u have a unique thing going on..brilliant I admire you..
This is by far my favourite series you’ve made! Gives me the travel bug!! Beautiful scenery, literally living the dream. Can’t wait for the next videos ❤️
Thanks so much 🥰🥰 been a really fun one to make!
Really loving this series. I'd always thought about going to thailand for a shorter trip but seeing all these videos makes me think I would be happy doing a really long trip as well! Great work!
When it comes to Thailand you always wish you'd booked longer 😄
just can't get enough of this amazing country..beautiful nature and beaches every where. 💯👌
absolutely obsessed with this series and loving all the editing too!! xx
You are simply fabulous and I love your personality, your style of videos and how informative but yet fun and engaging they are. You really have given me confidence to think about travelling as a blind person and exploring. You deserve all the success coming your way.
You've been absolutely crushing out these vlogs!! Love watching your Thailand series 😁 are you filming some Australia vlogs as well or focusing more on family?!
This really took me Back to my fist ever solo trip 3 years ago! Visited Koh lipe aswell and loved it. Keep up the good work!
Absolutely loved this vlog! Enjoy the rest of your fantastic trip ❤️🙌🏼
I'm excited for the warmer days to be here. Happy you have a friend to adventure with!! 🌺🌼🌺
Lets give a shout out to Sean. What a great co host. Man is a legend for being able to keep up with you! Safe travels
That was a nice little island find! Great diving shots! And then there’s Sean’s hair! Wow, what a wig on that fella…I dig it! Sad to see this series coming to an end
I obsessed with your VLOG. Hope you have an amazing journey in Thailand.
Thank you ❤️❤️
Wow, Koh Lipe really does look like a slice of paradise! Your video truly captured the beauty of the island and all it has to offer. It's like the Maldives of Thailand indeed! I'm adding this to my travel bucket list for sure.
I've loved this series! Sad it's coming to an end as it's really made me want to do a long trip seeing everything I can in Thailand, so I'm sure when I get to plan one I'll be back watching all the videos for more inspo. I also started the series with a partner, and am finishing it single so feel like I've been on a full emotional journey with you as well. Can't wait to see the last video!
why am I crying because your trip is almost over?!? I have been watching along your adventures since Turkey , so 4 months.. endings are bittersweet and it reminds me of my travels and time passed and.. i'm sure some can understand this feeling lol. I'm happy you will be ending the trip with a new seemingly wonderful friend
Omg when shaun was juggling his phone 😂 rewatched it 3 times it was SO FUNNY 😂 also digging his hair it’s so cool! 16 days till I head out to Thailand to start my backpacking journey ✈️
you are such a good diver and so much interest in diving. You arranged all the things that needed for diving like diving computer, glasses, go pro to record the diving and so on. You showed the marine life underneath the water. It is so amazing to see it and you are a hard worker too doing the work while eating that means how good you are at your work and dedication to your work as well as travelling. Keep vlogging and have a wonderful tours around the world.
Lovely watching your video Christianne, what a fantastic adventure you are on. I am travelling to Thailand with my family and friends for Christmas this year so it's great to see the different places you are visiting. You have a great zest for life and live in the moment.
These vlogs relax me a lot there just beautiful, love you Christianne 🖤
Aw yay I’m so pleased they are relaxing 🥰
Thanks for taking us for an adventure ✨️
Yes! Yes! More diving around Thailand! The clear waters around Koh Lipe are just amazing. So nice to see you swimming with different schools of fish. A lot of them are delicious eating too! And then ending it all off with a sunrise. Superb editing skills I have to say. Thanks so much. Until the next one... 😃🤙
Btw, was that Sean's guitar playing there at the end?
Really awesome vlogs! Thanks for showing so much of Thailand! If you get a chance, show a bit of Tonsai beach its just a walk away from railay!
Love the videos! I get to see all these new places my research doesn't find! Liberal the content
Hi 👋 Simply relaxing & peaceful place! ! Thanks 😊! !
Just loved this vlog.Been wanting to go to koh lipe myself. You've convinced me.
Great vlog wonderful Christie!!! 💖
Hiya, great video. Always enjoyable content. Beautiful underwater footage. Disgusting o clock. 🤣Love that. Thank you for sharing. Have a great Friday and Weekend. Happy Easter.
Seriously love you so much! You inspired my first backpacking trip back in early 2016 to S.E.A.
It was amazing! So cool to see it again through your eyes... All the changes too!
Would you consider doing an Indonesian backpacking trip sometime? Going through Bali ect? I know you went there years ago, but would be cool to see a full series of it... Anyway, you are awesome, thank you so much!!!
☀️🌻✌🏻😁
When I was on Lipe I found the bamboo huts very reasonable. Great vlog
I LOVE WATCHING YOUR VIDS WITH A COFFEE!
Great video! I was there a couple of years ago and we were stuck on the island for a few days because of a tsunami nearby that created very big waves. Wasn't too bad to be stuck at such a beautiful place tough. Smoked some joints and had some beers with the border patrol officers while banging on drums and random other instruments. Good fun :)
I started following you in these Thailand vlogs so I don’t know what your past trips have been like but I feel like you’ve gone through so much in Thailand! I’ve really enjoyed following you on your journey and can’t wait for your next set of adventures ❤
Thanks Mandi ❤️ it’s been a whirlwind for sure!
This is the type of travel I'm interested in, so I really enjoy following her journey. I highly recommend watching some of her other trips. She is not afraid to go out and learn something new or explore a place off the beaten path. While to me most travel vloggers are like "here's the most popular city in this country and a couple popular things to do here. okay next place." She spends months in a country and makes all sorts of friends. She also doesn't typically stay in resorts or pricy air bnbs unless she is with a group, so you get the actual backpacker experience that not a lot of travel channels offer. Sorry this is long.
@@TheShauNanigans I actually just started watching her Turkey trip! That's exactly what drew me to this channel. It seems like a much more real experience. Sounds like i have a lot of binge watching to do! haha
❤️❤️❤️ i watched all your dive and wish to see a little bit more every time 🐠🐡
stopped for lunch just in time for this, it’s a sign🤩
Wooop 🥳🥳
You are lovely and you send such positive vibes 🔥 keep it up 👍🏻
I haven’t watched this one yet bc I am behind by 2 or so bc you are much more productive solo! 😂🙏🏼💕🦋 I like it better this way! 😂
Backpacking, your smashing it, living your dream life, I guess the way you wanted it to be. Gonna be sad when it's all over. Best wishes......
Some great footage especially the dive. Would love to do this one day
wow i'd never expected Sean to have that hair haha, i love ur videos ! :) reminds me my time backpacking thailand as well
🇹🇭🇹🇭🤩Thailand is fantastic, good job Christianne👏
The snorkeling is amazing in Koh Lipe too! We went on a 4-stop tour, each with different coral and fish, very colorful and diverse, like underwater Butchart Gardens! It cost 600 baht per person in 2019. There is another 6-stop tour also. If you can squeeze that in, you won't ever regret it.
Sounds great!
Living the Life.😉Sean is a Trooper.🤙🏿
Awesome video Christianne 😊👍👍
❤️❤️❤️
Diving looks so fun! What a dream, would love to do something like that but I can't even swim :(
beautiful island And that branch is a rare species that can only be found on that island. consider you very lucky Underwater sea is amazing and white sand and quiet beaches 😲😯😍😊😉👍
great video !!
Top island in Thailand so awesome
Very amazing backpacking trip but can you show us a day in your work life while backpacking?
Another great video we want more sean lol
He will be in the next vlog!
Hi there, interested to know what you think of the Cabaia day pack you bought for this trip?
I’m also in Thailand with my family in koh Tao just love this country.
Great video again - PADI rescue diver with no Dive computer ? How do you fill in your log book ? You must have just hired Computers before maybe. Don’t think I could ever dive without one, I had to have an air integrated one when I used to dive a lot. Where did you do yore rescue diver course ? Did mine at Babbacombe in the UK. Loving your Thailand travels 🌞
Love it! ❤️
❤️❤️
Due to its tiny size and geographic isolation, Koh Lipe is much lesser known than its popular brothers and sisters. But it's this sense of mystery that makes Koh Lipe worth visiting. It may be a bit more tricky to get to, but a visit to this tiny Thai island is well worth the effort.
Agreed 😊
Brilliant chris
At 15:30 “what kind of you tuber an I?” Ah, an Awesome one! 💕
It's an interesting video. I'll subscribe to your channel. Enjoy your trip 😃😃
Looks brill… water looks beaut…💥
Keith Lemon .
How long was the trip from Phi Phi to Koh Lipe and from Koh Lipe to Railay?
Amazing
Loved this video! You're for sure getting a good amount of those iced caramel lattes but I'd do the same 😂
Can’t stop won’t stop 😂
Sean’s hair 😍
What camera do you use while travelling?
Unrelated but PSA while you're in aus you should get some eco tan face tan water - you'll thank me later 😜 best product going around!
I plan on going to Thailand in June with my 14 year old daughter. Could you recommend a base place to stay and then we could go to other cool places for a few days. Or should we just jump from Airbnb to Airbnb?
Make sure you are putting an SPF protective lip balm every two hours with all of that sun exposure from your excursions :)
Wish I’d done this in Phuket! That’s where my lip got burnt which turned into this wound 😩
How long did the speed boat ride take from Koh Phi Phi to Koh Lipe?
Hey, are you using a go pro or dive camera as your footage quality looks epic under the water. My go pro has a green tint effect so thinking of upgrading for future dives
It’s filmed on a gopro! There is a small amount of colour grading on the footage that was done in editing 😊
An acoustic guitar is an essential backpacking item
Sean’s hair though 😍
It’s wild!
Looking so fun Christianne 😍 I’m backpacking Croatia this August, does anyone have any recommendations for activities, hostels, etc.? 🇭🇷
Highly recommend taking a trip to Kotor, Montenegro when you find yourself in Dubrovnik! Busses to Kotor leave from Dubrovnik and we had a great time there in the old town hostel
Quick question on ur dive selfie stick - u have the 3-jointed one. There are the plain simple sticks. I have been told the 3-jointed ones are very finicky to operate underwater (it's harder to switch from selfie to front mode,etc). Wdyt ?
I don’t find it too difficult to manoeuvre tbh! I just never tighten it up too much so I can very easily switch up the angle. Takes like 2 seconds 😊
that’s so near to malaysia! come and visit our country if you have the chance 🇲🇾
Is the art garden still there?
Are you going back to Bali? Or any plans?
Railay one of my favourites well tonsai next door
appreciate your video about this stunning island but please - especially since you're a diver - consider bringing some kind of reusable cup for your coffees to cut down on plastic! plus, you can get an insulated one and it will even keep it chilled 😎
Edit: having watched a few more of your Videos, you're obviously aware of the plastic-situation, more so than most others, so thank you.
Pull into Da Nang next darling. I will caution that you may stay a fair while longer than you anticipated. Lovely city, great people. Party up at Bamboo2
I loved Koh Lipe! but yes, your right not a backpacking destination. I wouldn't go there solo..not that easy to meet others.
Am I the only one that can’t look away? 👀
Good morning !
Helloooo 😎😎
Wie geht’s euch 😊
Did you manage to get a new battery 🔋?
Hi Christiane! I was just curious if and or what is the backpacking scene like for people over 40? Is there even the option?
I’ll be honest, it’s less common. But for sure it is always an option😊 it’s not unheard of and it’s totally allowed! It’s all about how comfortable you feel ❤️
As long as you have the means and feel physically fit enough to backpack, you can backpack. The older you are, the less likely it is that you'll find people with a similar lifestyle in your age range, but that shouldn't deter people from doing it (in my opinion). It just means the friends you make might be younger by quite a bit, but again, that shouldn't be a reason not to do it.
I´m 43 and I´m not gonna stop travelling on a budget because of this ;-)
@@aitormolinerobozas-urrutia2465 Thank You! I’m not too deterred either. I wanna see the world, although I’d love to meet all sorts of people, my main prerogative is the take in the worlds wonders, on a budget lol.
Will you ever visit mexico again?
สิ่งนี้นึกถึงเมื่อ7ปีที่แล้วมันเป็นความทรงจำต่อเกาะหลีเป๊ะกับแฟนเก่า
Do you worry about snakes when your hiking ?
How was the chicken curry on the boat?
So delish!
🤗😊
With a guitar.... Talk to text is not working well with me this morning, but as I stated it's not solo when you have people with you 👍😉
This place is very far away for most of local Thai people to visit.
Why carry that guitar in thailand heat hiking !!!😅🤣
When are you going to 🇵🇼 palau???
It’s still on the bucket list!!
@@BackpackingBananas goood! I’m going you go there this year then I might go after when I’ve seen your videos
fun fact with Kat #4: I know off by heart the first 114 of 118 elements of the periodic table and can say them in less than a minute and a half, I aim this week to memorise all 118
Love from Adeel Karachi Pakistan
love u
Baby keep posting videos every other day. 😉
Also is Sean part of Party Rock Anthem?
I think so yeh
