What to expect
This full-day tour from Phuket takes you to some of the most beautiful islands in the Andaman Sea. You'll start your day with a hotel pickup and transfer to the Phuket Boat Lagoon. After a warm welcome by the crew of Wow Andaman, depart by speed boat to Phi Phi Islands.
Your first stop will be Loh Dalum Bay, a stunning bay with white sand beaches and clear turquoise waters. You'll have time to swim, snorkel, or just relax on the beach. Next, you'll head to Camel Rock and Monkey Beach, where you can see the iconic rock formation that resembles a camel and the beach where monkeys roam freely.
After lunch on Koh Phi Phi Don, you'll visit Maya Bay, one of the most popular tourist destinations in Thailand. This secluded bay is known for its white sand beaches and clear waters, and it was made famous by the movie 'The Beach'.
After Maya Bay, you'll jump off the boat into Pileh Lagoon, a beautiful lagoon with turquoise waters and limestone cliffs. You'll also have time to snorkel near Viking Cave, a cave with a hole in the roof that resembles a Viking helmet.
Your last stop will be Bamboo Island, a small flat island with white sandy beaches. You'll have time to snorkel and relax on the beach before heading back to Phuket.

Important Information
- Bring a dry bag, swimwear, towel, sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses, flip flops, a camera and cash.
- Thailand's Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation will close Maya Bay every year for 2 months in August and September.
- Notable rules at Maya Bay include no swimming, no single-use plastics, using reef-safe sunscreen and no use of drones without permission.
- While Monkey Beach isn't a direct stop, you can still observe the monkeys when the tide is low.
- Don't feed the monkeys as it makes them aggressive and stops them from foraging for food as they would normally do.
- During certain seasons, jellyfish may be present in the Andaman Sea, and contact can cause skin irritation or discomfort. To minimize the risk, we recommend wearing protective clothing such as watershoes and long swimwear when swimming.
- Ensuring your safety is our top priority. To that end, we strongly recommend wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkeling.
- Speed boats navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach.
- While flip-flops are convenient, water shoes offer better protection against sharp objects like shells or rocks on the sand, and provide improved traction on wet surfaces.
- Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat.
- This tour is not recommended for pregnant women, infants under 2 years, people over 69 years or people with back or neck problems.
- If you want to switch your hotel in Phuket we charge an extra fee of 300 THB per person.
- There is a minimum of 10 people required to run this activity! On the rare occasion that we should be required to cancel this trip, we will inform you in advance and offer a different travel date, an alternative activity or provide a full refund.
