Hat Yai

The floating market situated just outskirt of the town, on the river Hat Yai. This 3 times a week (Friday, Saturday and Sunday)  the market begins at 4.00 in the evening offers a colourful sight and local delights and specialties. The hawkers row their boats all the way from their homes and harbour  at the spot. Most of them are Muslim women.

At the peak of our trip. Hopping the islands by speed boat, dipping, swimming and snorkeling. From the mainland it took a 40 minutes of hair raising journey to islands in the bay. The islands and the surrounding waters were once a location of James Bond movie in 1974.
