DescriptionThe Oyster Blade is a limestone spire about 1/4 mile down the arm of Phi Phi from the Tonsai Wall. It is about half way between Tonsai Wall and Hin Tak (Monkey Beach). You should be able to spot it from the main beach in town, a detached pillar, with a small beach just next to the jungle at the base. Getting ThereTake a boat, or walk at low tide, or even mid tide if you don't mind a little wading. Probably won't be able to walk there and back if you are going to the top.
