The Twin IslandsAn area off the coast of Amphoe La-ngu, over one kilometer from Hua

Hin village, lies two islands known officially as "Ko Lidi", the islands in

the Petra Islands National Park. Lidi islands are a haven for visitors

who want privacy because the islands are small and uninhibited. The

only buildings found on the island belong to the staff of a private

company which has been granted a concession of the precious

swallows' nests. Although there are thousands of swallows inhabiting

the caves, their flocks cannot be seen easily because the caves where

they nestle are accessible only by diving along the narrow paths.
