The Ko Yao Islands
This map shows the six islands in the Yao group: Ko Yao Don (the biggest and only inhabited island); Ko Yao Leh; Bamboo Island (Ko Pai); Mosquito Island (Ko Yung); Ko Bida Nok; and Ko Bida Nai.
The word 'Ko' simply means 'island' in Thai and is used as a prefix to the island's name. Sometimes written 'Koh', it is actually pronounced like the Engish word 'got', without the 't'.
