Is Ko Lipe safe for solo female travelers?

Ko Lipe is a generally safe place for solo female travelers. The local people are friendly and the crime rate is low. However, as a traveler, it’s important to take general precautions such as staying in well-lit areas at night, avoiding deserted areas or beaches, and not leaving your belongings unattended. There are no dangerous animals on land, although in the sea you need to watch out for sharp corals and some potentially harmful marine life. Moreover, the island community is small and everyone knows each other, so any serious incident is quickly resolved.
