Why Coral & Racha

  • Just 30 minutes from Phuket — perfect for half a day.
  • Much cheaper than Phi Phi or James Bond (1,350 THB vs 2,000+).
  • Exceptional waters — Racha Yai has one of the best snorkeling sites in the region (soft corals, tropical fish, visibility 15-20 m).
  • Combinable with a morning activity if you take Option 2 in the afternoon.

Our advice

  • Family with children or tight budget → Option 1 (2 day islands).
  • Couple on honeymoon → Option 2 (sunset dinner catamaran).
  • Certified divers → Racha Yai diving with a specialized center (2,500 THB, more technical).

Tip: many prefer Coral & Racha to shared James Bond because it's shorter, less tiring, same water quality and beaches. For 500-1000 THB less.

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.

Frequently asked

Option 1 (speed boat, 1,350 THB) if you want to cover 2 islands and return early. Option 2 (catamaran, 1,500 THB) for the sunset dinner and if you prefer to leave in the afternoon. Option 2 is more romantic, Option 1 more sporty.
