The Myeik Archipelago is located at the southernmost tip of Myanmar. Myeik Archipelago covers about 36,000 sq km comprises more than 800 islands. Most of the area remains unexplored. Those islands possess a wide diversity of flora and fauna and underwater coral reefs and marine life. Some of the islands have magnificent white sand beaches, unparallel to any of the world’s most famous beaches.

These islands also have varieties of mangroves, forests, wild-life, lagoons, caves, fresh – water falls and rivers. There are many locations for sea kayaking, scuba – diving and fishing that are considered the best in the world. In the deeper waters of the Myeik Archipelago, rock pinnacles covered with healthy corals attract dolphins, sharks and many species of fish.

The salones / sea-gypsies are taking refuge around Lampi Island in this area. Formerly called Victoria Point, Kawthaung is the southern most town of Myanmar.
