For many visitors Koh Yao Noi is the perfect Thai island destination because of the healthy balance of amenities, including shops and good hotels, and unspoilt countryside. Aside from the resorts, Koh Yao Noi has 13 small villages which are predominantly inhabited by Muslim people who have lived there for generations. For local people tourism is an important industry on Koh Yao Noi, but so is fishing and agriculture, and this makes Koh Yao Noi a more interesting cultural experience that parts of Thailand where people have largely abandoned traditional industries."}, {"text_idx": "#000122", "text": "Koh Yao Noi is small enough to drive all the way around on a motorbike in about 2 hours. The three main places to stay in Koh Yao Yai are the beaches of Thao Khao, Klong Jark and Pasai Beach, on the South and East coasts of the island. Klong Kark beach is the location of the island\u2019s most luxurious resorts, the Six Senses Yao Noi and Cape Kudu Hotel. Close to the resorts are a small range of indepdent restaurants and bars.
