About This Tour

South of Phuket, Racha (Raya) and Mai Ton are where the water gets serious: visibility that regularly hits 20 meters, white-sand bays, and — if you are lucky on the crossing — wild dolphins riding the bow wave.

This is the route locals recommend to friends who ask where the clear water actually is. You snorkel Siam Bay, relax on Patok Beach before the day-trippers arrive, lunch at Siam Beach, and break the return crossing with a swim stop at little Koh Rang Yai. No park fees, no queues — just water.

Best for snorkelers, swimmers and families who measure a boat day in hours in the water rather than landmarks ticked off. If underwater is your priority, this is the one.

Departure Point: Boat Lagoon Pier (Ko Kaeo, Phuket) — private minibus collects you from any Phuket hotel, villa or residence
Group Size: Up to 10 guests (up to 20 on request)
Boat: 39-ft VIP speedboat
