WANG
LONG
BAY:
This
small
picturesque
inlet
is
on
the
western
side
of
the
main
island
and
quite
stunning
in
its
geography.
As
the
boat
cruises
along
the
vertical
cliff
line
you
may
be
forgiven
for
thinking
it’s
an
impenetrable
barrier.
Approximately
half-way
along
there’s
a
break
in
the
vertical
limestone
wall,
where
a
narrow
entrance
leads
to
a
small,
picturesque
beach
further
inside.
WANG
LONG
CAVE:
Beyond
the
small
beach,
at
the
end
of
the
inlet,
is
one
of
the
biggest
caves
on
Phi
Phi
islands.
From
the
beach
there’s
a
series
of
bamboo
ladders
which
go
up
through
the
jungle
to
the
cave
entrance.
The
cave
is
a
place
where
the
island
locals
go
to
collect
sea
swallow
nests
for
the
lucrative
Chinese
market.
To
venture
into
the
cave
you’ll
need
permission
as
it’s
a
place
which
is
fiercely
guarded
by
the
locals
who
collect
nests
there.
Once
inside
you’ll
see
a
labyrinth
of
bamboo
poles
hanging
from
the
cave
walls
and
ceiling.
These
are
the
makeshift
scaffolds
the
collectors
use
for
accessing
the
difficult
to
get
to
swallow
nests.
Additionally,
you’ll
need
your
own
flashlight
to
safely
explore
the
cave.
