About This Activity

The Phi Phi Islands are among Southeast Asia's most spectacular seascapes — dramatic limestone cliffs encircling emerald waters and pristine beaches. Maya Bay on Phi Phi Leh (filming location of 'The Beach') was restored and reopened with managed access to protect its coral. Full-day speedboat tours from Phuket (approximately 1,990–2,590 THB) include snorkeling at Hin Klai reef, a stop at Monkey Beach, and lunch on Phi Phi Don. Tours depart from Chalong Pier or Rassada Pier. The islands are also reachable by overnight ferry if you wish to stay.

Seasonal note: Best Nov–Apr (dry season); tours may suspend Jun–Oct due to monsoon seas and reduced Maya Bay visibility
