Peace and Quiet
This is a top pick! ... we took a long tail boat down to the part of the beach that I had originally set out to see. The southern tip of Koh Jum is more developed with a few more bungalow operations and more restaurants and bars. Although the island is very nice, the food ...
Kuala Lumpur to Koh Jum
... been a marathon seven month adventure, we stopped off along the way at an island paradise off the south west coast of Thailand called Koh Jum. Fed up with the sudden rush of tourism that met our arrival in the more usually travelled Malaysia and Thailand ...
Koh Jum

Northbound
... might call villages plotted here and there. Real sense of community here. If you want an in-your-face cultural experience in Thailand, then you must attend a Muay Thai boxing event. This is where the passion of the people really comes to the surface ...
A place not even registered on the map
... Ocean with shore being just visible on the horizon, I soon began to realise that this was in fact the ferry stop for Koh Jum. Before I could even blink, an accommodation deal was done and our luggage passed through the window of the boat and boarded onto ...
More relaxing II
We were bored in Koh Lanta, so we thought a smaller island would make it easier to get around and do more things. Wrong. So, we relaxed more. Figured out how to string up our hammocks (used those sailor knots we learned in scuba) and read and relaxed some ...
Koh Jum
... with great sea view). Spent 3 lazy days lying on the beach, swimming, snorkelling, wandering around the 9km long island, eating amazingly good food (Koh Jum Seafood in Ban Koh Jum on the back side of the island can't be beat - only takes an hour or so ...
Back from Paradise
... che ci hanno visto protagonisti della parte piu' rilassante del viaggio. Dieci giorni indimenticabili in questa isoletta a sud della Tailandia (Koh Jum), trovata per caso dalla nostra guest-house di Krabi. Spiagge tropicali, snorkeling tra amici di Nemo, ...
Koh Jum
Hello all! We decided to go to Koh Jum after Krabi, as it sounded peaceful - a small island with only a few bungalows. After a boat ride of about one and a half hours we were met by a longtail boat just off Jum. He then took us to our place - 'Joy ...
Peace in Koh Jum- but no banana shakes unitil 6 pm
... I am on an unplanned "cleansing" diet at the moment, I have been on this diet since I had some bad shrimp at my last meal in koh lanta. So nothing that goes in me , stays in me....I need not say more. So my new diet consists of water, fanta, and shakes ( ...
Floating out at sea, waiting for Reality

Mission: Birthday Cake
... phone calls and running around and a beautiful thai cake was delivered on the beach. All guests joined in for some cake and a drink and the owners were kind enough to keep the electricity flowing until 2 am. It was a great party on the beach of Koh ...
Christmas on an Island
We blew the budget on Koh Jum island near Krabbe for a Christmas treat. Fabulous bungalow and pool made it easier to be away from family and friends. It was here that the Seibits helped the fisherman with their boat foundation and so it was great to see ...
"Äkk wan åränjuu" & ljusfenomen
... jag den längsta länken hittills, sedan har vi slappat på verandan, snart är det dags för lunch. Tungt det här livet i Thailand. Om tre dagar reser vi vidare, med morgonfärjan till Krabi där det (hoppeligen) står en glad thailändare och viftar ...
Morgonlänk och eldshow på stranden
MICHAEL: Julaftonens kulinariska eat-as-much-as-you-like-buffé med allt möjligt inklusive barbequeade tigerräkor och tonfiskfiléer gjorde det litet tyngre att komma igång på juldagsmorgonen. Men det var väl värt det. Slutresultatet var en lugn ...
Luboa och Coconut Beach = alla stränder kollade
... thailändare förbi (de kollade också in "strandfynd") och på eftermiddagen också hela fyra turister till. Ingen av turiststränderna på Koh Jum har känts det minsta "crowded", men det var ändå kul att ha en egen "paradisstrand" en förmiddag, ...
Sol,motion och jullov
SANNA: Här på Koh Jum morgonjoggar vi längs knappt farbara djungelvägar, det är både lättare och tyngre än att springa längs sandstränderna. Underlaget är hårdare, men det är ojämnt och det är mycket upp och ner. Nya muskler gör sig ...
Funderingar och svar från hängmattan
... imorgon är det julafton. Jag mår bra och det är jätteskönt här, det känns som om vi varit bara två veckor här i Thailand. Du kanske tycker att jag varit länge borta. Städerna/byarna är skitiga och INTE trevliga att gå i usch. Gatorna ...
Adventure Update
... Lots of driving around the island (daniel in control obviously) finding beautiful beaches and bars. Also met some fantastic people. Koh Jum- Known as Koh Poo. This is where the magic is. Three days turned into almost three weeks. We have so much love for ...
Tsunamiserat korallrev, men ändå fint
... områden, i större (typ "skåpbil") och mindre klumpar. Men trots förödelsen verkar korallerna må bättre här än på Koh Bulon och Koh Ngai, de flesta är levande och finns i alla regnbågens färger. Eftersom korallen är mer utspridd är fiskarna ...
Nyårshälsningar
SANNA: Ting Ray Bay är inte en plats lämpad för dem som vill festa. Baren stänger klockan nio och utbudet begränsat och dyrt. Några festprissar eller discodunk varken syns eller hörs. Här är det bara djur och barn ;-), som för oljud. På ...
Doing nothing in paradise
... a bit smaller. We were soon on our way and about an hour later rendezvoused with the long tail boats from the accommodations on Koh Jum. We delicately transferred mid-ocean to the smaller boat and were on our way to Joy Bungalow. We were grateful that we ...
"Full-day Sea-kayaking trip" up the beach
... December 3rd, Susie and me, super-motivated after days of lazing, eating and reading, decided to rent a kayak for the day and explore Koh Jum Island from a sea perspective. Half-way round, we thought, we could easily make it in no time at all. We'd be ...
Ännu en slapp skön dag
MICHAEL: Gårdagens utfärd (med åtskilliga timmars snorkling) satt märkbart ännu i benen idag, så alla kände för att ta det lugnt. Efter morgonmålet vandrade vi iväg till närbelägna (och obebodda) Magic Beach på snäckjakt, och bytet blev ...
Sand sunshine and tree frogs.
A week on Koh Jum was one of the most relaxing experiences ever, it's sooo laid back there friendly locals, great food, practically deserted beaches bliss! total contrast to Bangkok or even Krabi. Although there is tourism on the island it ...
The day of our near-suicidal boat trip
Susie signed us up for a snorkeling trip to Bamboo Island, near Phi Phi, where we would go and have a good time and spend some time in a nice Thai national park. First, we snorkeled around a reef and it was beautiful, fish everywhere, taking bites, ...
Mosquito & Bamboo Island, part 2
MICHAEL: Eftersom dagarna på Koh Jum runnit iväg (vilket är ett tecken på lyckad semester) och det verkade vara sämre väder på ingång bestämde vi oss igår för att åka på en sista heldagssnorkelutfärd, denna gång enbart till Mosquito och ...
Sann julfrid
... göra det som faller er in. Var så snälla och ge en julkram från Amanda och mig till Cita-mommo. MICHAEL: I Thailand firar varken thailändarna eller jag någon jul. Tycker inte att den överkommersialiserade julen hemma är någon höjdare, saknar ...
Krabi, Koh Jum & Fireworks, lots of them
... friends, Peta, Bradders and their two children now in existence, Hannah & Casey. 12 years ago we celebrated the new millennium on Koh Jum, staying at Joy Bunglaows where the Thai staff took great delight in trying to shoot us with fireworks. This time we ...
Relaxation on Koh Jum Island, last stop in SE Asia
... 350 baht a night. Definitely a bargain compared to the other touristy islands of Koh Phi Phi or Koh Lanta! Well, what can I say, Koh Jum island is wonderful, amazing people, natural and raw in it’s own way. The island was just having it’s ...
