Locations for wooden Jetties

[mrhitchens]

Trying to find a list of locations with wooden Jetties in the following locations,

• Phuket
• Similan Islands
• Phi Phi
• Lanta
• Samui

Or any other Island in the south

Would be outstanding if any member has a sample images of the above?

Thanks in advance^^

Here's the Maenam Samui, Lomprayah jetty.... just re- built a couple of years ago ... just down the road from me!

The other end at Chumpon, has another.... I have to take a image from a photo.... to show that, it seems to have gone south! (tomorrow maybe!)

Thanks mate, looking for something non commercial, kinda old style Thai, the few I knew Have been replaced so beens difficult to find the right place now

[samuijimmy]

Here's one a little less commercial, then , only Oilinki and I know where it is.... we were asked not reveal the top secret location!

[mrhitchens]

That looks about perfect, If you could share the location and how to get there?

Small thin Jettie with a feature at the end is perfect, used to know a few but these days it seems they are all replaced, so sad

Try Koh Samet. I think there are still some on the far side of the island.

Also good if you like to photograph litter and landfill mind.

Koh Chang might also be worth a try, but I've never been there.

Yep I made the trek and Saturday to Koh Chang the place I remember had been developed, full of backpackers and concrete,

I'll call Gordon tomorrow and see if there's any left on Samet. That place has suffered a similar fate of late.

North south?... theres one on Koh Lon east of Phuket at cruiser island resort, (oh P.S The pic is not mine its the same one as on their website though).

If you want closer to BKK goto google maps and enter thetsaban 3 bang phra ....just north of the main pier you will see about 5 mini ones...never been but they look wooden from above.

Google Earth might also be worth using for a scouting mission.

Yup, just checked. Put Koh Samet in Google Earth search, then zoom around. There's even photos of the jetties.

Use Google Earth for scoping beforehand.

A better shot, of that same jetty posted above....^ It's a secret island,

I did PM Mr Kitchens, of the location... Owner of the resort does not want the island publicized! (one resort there)

Oilinki and I visited it about this time last year! Great find Oili!

Chumporn. This baby's at least 100 meters long.

Not all wood. But good enough for a visit.
