This trip was incredible! We felt like a family, and the organiser looked after us and took care of everything. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a fun and memorable experience on a speedboat, enjoying the crystal-clear water.

Très bonne escursion personnelle au petit soin bien organisé. Le taxi nous a récupéré à l’hôtel le matin à 8h10, nous nous sommes rendu au point de rendez-vous à Chalong. Ou nous avons pris un petit déjeuner buffet ensuite nous avons eu les instructions puis nous avons marché (~4min) jusqu’au bateau. Direction l’île une fois arrivé sur place nous avons eu le temp de profité jusqu’au repas. Pendant que d’autre on booké la plongée. Très bon repas dans un restaurant local petit buffet ( riz/poulet frit/patte sauce tomate/mango stick rice. Ensuite nous avons pris la formule avec piscine dans un hô

This was really the peak of our holiday. We went a full day with our 2-4 year olds. Snorkling, beaching, views and fantastic crew that really took great care of us and the kids. Felt like we were very special.. I highly recommend this trip when you are nearby. Thank you for the great experience and memories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Safety briefing, Welcome refreshments (30 minutes) The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover extra activities: parasailing, banana boat, sea walking, and scuba diving (available for an extra charge at banana beach). and personal expenses: gratuities or additional snacks/beverages not mentioned.. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Not in rough sea. The Andaman side is calm from November to April and choppy from May to October, when the marine office can close the piers at short notice; if that happens the operator moves you to the next day or refunds in full. Seasickness tablets the night before help on speedboats, and Maya Bay itself closes to visitors in August and September each year.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

The dry season from November to April offers the best weather for island-hopping tours and beach activities. December to March is peak season with calm seas, perfect for Phi Phi and Phang Nga Bay boat trips. May to October (monsoon) is quieter and cheaper but some boat tours may be affected by rough seas. See our Phuket travel guide for detailed month-by-month advice.
Phuket is one of Southeast Asia's safest tourist destinations with excellent infrastructure, friendly locals, and a strong tourist police presence. Standard precautions apply: use reputable transport, stay aware in crowded areas, and book verified tours through trusted platforms. For water activities, all our tours include safety equipment and experienced crew.
The top experiences include: the Phi Phi Islands for snorkeling and Maya Bay, Phang Nga Bay for dramatic limestone cliffs and James Bond Island, the Big Buddha for panoramic views, Wat Chalong temple, and the charming Phuket Old Town for street food and Sino-Portuguese architecture. See our things to do guide for the complete list.
Yes! Direct flights between Phuket and Bangkok take just 1 hour 20 minutes. We recommend 3–4 days in Phuket for island tours, then 2–3 days in Bangkok for temples, markets, and street food. Our local guides operate in both cities for seamless trip planning.
We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance covering water sports before booking any speedboat tour or island-hopping excursion. While all our boats carry safety equipment and licensed crews, Thai hospital costs can be significant without coverage. Ensure your policy covers emergency medical evacuation and water activity accidents.
