as it is extremely accurate and informative.
I almost lost the lives of two of my kids and myself due to rip currents on a south Thailand beach a few years back. I won't go into a long speech about Thais, beaches, rip currents and the responsibility to inform the public about danger.......but read what is here about dangers to kids in rip currents......
I just found another option without having to fly through KL or SIN...
Firefly offers a 40 minute flight on a turboprop between the two islands for around 69MYR... not bad!
Done deal.
