[edit] Get in

Separated from the mainland of Phuket by the Khlong Tha Chin, a shallow mangrove swamp, this twenty-square kilometre island is connected by a causeway to the city.

[edit] Get around

[edit][add listing] See

• Wat Ko Si-Re, on the hill, has a large Reclining Buddha and provides fine views of the surroundings.
• Phuket's largest settlement of Sea Gypsies (Chao Le), can be found on Ko Si-Re at Laem Tuk-kae. The muddy seabed means the island is not good for swimming.

[edit][add listing] Do

• Visit the Sea Gypsy community. It may seem run down and dirty - but the people are real and have genuine smiles!

[edit][add listing] Buy

• Barbara, [1]. Cheap pearls of all colours from the sea Gypsie as well as shells and mobiles. Very good prices compared to Phuket Town. Bargain with a smile - the sea Gypsies are very friendly!  edit
