Why choose this trip
- Hidden beaches that only locals know about.
- No crowds: the boat is all yours.
- A flexible route, with you calling the shots.
- Local captain, snorkelling gear and life jackets provided.
The relaxed boat or the longtail
Your choice when booking, same price. The relaxed boat is a unique, large wooden boat: 4 hammocks, a kayak, a rooftop deck and onboard toilets. It isn't fast: it glides quietly and stays very stable, ideal for families and anyone not fully at ease on the water. The longtail is the bay's traditional boat, simpler and closer to the water.
Good to know
Meet at Laem Hat pier (Koh Yao Noi) 15 minutes before the 8:00 departure. Up to 6 people. Hotel pick-up isn't included.
Before you go
Good to know
Prone to seasickness?
Take a tablet ~30 min before departure, sit mid-boat, keep your eyes on the horizon and avoid heading out on an empty stomach.
Beat the crowds
Iconic spots like Maya Bay are far calmer early in the day. Our morning departures get you there before the midday ferry rush.
National park fees
Some sites sit inside a national park, so an entrance fee may apply. Check the “Not included” list above so there are no surprises.
Sun & reef care
The tropical sun is strong, bring a hat, sunglasses and plenty of water. Reef-safe sunscreen is required in Thai marine parks.
What to pack
Swimwear under your clothes, a towel, a dry bag for your phone, and a change of clothes for the trip back.
