Koh Panyee, is a fishing village notable for being built on stilts by Malay fishermen. The population consists of 360 families or 1,685 people descended from two seafaring Muslim families from Java. The main attractions here are the mosquee, street shops, and the floating football field. If you come outside school time, you might have a chance to play with local kids. You can get to koh Payee from many different directions, the agencies will sell you a tour of the bay including James Bond island (better after 11AM), a sand bank, and Lot cave. I personally took a private boat (1,700 THB) to go there early and avoid crowds.
