As suspected, Lipe was rather gorgeous. Really small, no roads but
best of all were the beaches. The picture is of our nearest, Sunlight
Beach which was beautiful in the afternoon, just like a postcard.

However we spent yesterday on the best beach in the world, Sunset
Beach. It was tucked into a cove with a gorgeous stretch of sand & the
clearest sea we’ve ever seen. Hence we got down there at around 10am
and snorkeled for an hour and saw an amazing range of tropical fish
straight off the beach. Including a very cute family of Clown fish
(Nemo fish) hiding in some coral.

We then had breakfast in a bakery in a shady grove and headed back for
more snorkeling in the afternoon. We can’t figure out why there were
no more than 10 other people on the beach!!

We’re now on Langkawi in Malaysia. Just checked into Zackry’s
Guesthouse which seems to be the friendliest place in the world &
planning our next move.
