Sunny outlook for Koh Tao

Koh Tao, a tropical island in Thailand's South, has made it into the Top 10 of TripAdvisor's Annual Traveller's Choice Awards 2013. Famous for diving and a care-free beach culture, Koh Tao is listed the world's 8th best island ahead of Easter Island in Chile and Nosy Be in Madagascar.

"White sand beaches sheltered by steep hills - some only accessible with four-wheel drive vehicles - and 300 days of sun per year invite long afternoons of lounging," notes TripAdvisor, a travel website that assists customers in gathering information, posting reviews and opinions.
