Itinerary

07:30 | Morning Pick-up

  • Our day in paradise begins with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel. Once everyone is on board, we’ll head to the pier for an unforgettable journey to the islands just off the coast of Krabi. The exact pick-up time will depend on your accommodation’s location and the number of participants.

 

Phra Nang Beach: A Sanctuary in Paradise

  • Our first stop is spectacular Phra Nang Beach, a dreamlike spot near Railay. Here, you’ll not only enjoy its incredible beauty but also visit the sacred Phra Nang Cave Shrine, a place of great spiritual significance to local fishermen.

 

Koh Kai and Talay Waek: Snorkelling and the Separated Sea

  • We’ll continue to Koh Kai, also known as Chicken Island, famous for its unusual rock formation. We’ll dive into its crystal-clear waters for a snorkelling session, admiring the rich marine life, including colourful tiger fish. Here, we’ll witness one of Thailand’s most remarkable natural phenomena: Talay Waek, a natural sandbar that emerges at low tide, allowing you to walk between Koh Mor, Koh Tub and Koh Kai.

 

Buffet Lunch: Tropical Flavours

  • After exploring the underwater world, we’ll take a break to enjoy a delicious buffet lunch. Recharge with a varied selection of Thai dishes and international options to suit different tastes, all in a beautiful tropical setting.

 

Koh Poda: Dream Beaches and Cinematic Scenery

  • Our final island stop is Koh Poda, a paradise of white sand and turquoise waters so spectacular that it has featured in numerous films. You’ll have free time to relax in the sun, swim in the calm waters or capture the scenery in unforgettable photographs.

Responsible Snorkelling

Let’s Protect the Marine Treasures of the Andaman Sea

 

We invite you to enjoy the reefs and marine life respectfully. This ecosystem is fragile and depends on all of us to survive.

Avoid touching or walking on corals, as they are living organisms that are extremely sensitive. Observe the fish without chasing them or disturbing their natural behaviour.

Do not collect shells or other natural objects, as they are part of the ecosystem’s delicate balance.

Whenever possible, use biodegradable sunscreen to help protect the reefs.

Small actions can make a big difference. Protecting this environment is the best way to ensure we can continue enjoying it today and in the future.
