Coral Island – Phuket, Thailand

Aug 19, 2010 | Landscapes & Scenery, Travel & Culture

Coral Island is located 2 miles south of Phuket. This gorgeous getaway destination is surround by crystal clear blue water and tons of coral reef, hence the name Coral Island. This HDR was taken right after the storm that rolled by (view that Coral Island photo here). After the storm left the green rocks seem to glow like amber. It was one of those things that had to be seen. My efforts to reproduce the image didn’t come close. I’m hoping you can envision it just by seeing this photo.
